Résumé
The aim of the data farming project by the Unitrad group is to produce and use large quantities of structured real-life data throughout radiotherapy treatment. Starting in 2016, target real world data were selected at expert consensus conferences and regularly updated, then captured in MOSAIQ© as the patient was treated. For each partner institution, the data was then stored in a relational database, then extracted and used by researchers to create real world knowledge. This production was carried out in a multicentre, coordinated fashion. When necessary, the raw data was shared according to the research projects, in compliance with regulations. Feedack was provided at each stage, enabling the system to evolve flexibly and rapidly, using the "agile" method. This work, which is constantly evolving, has led to the creation of health data warehouses focused on data of interest in radiotherapy, and the publication of numerous academic studies. It forms part of the wider context of the exploitation of real-life data in cancerology. Unitrad data farming is a collaborative project for creating knowledge from real-life radiotherapy data, based on an active network of clinicians and researchers.
