Childhood Cancer Data Initiative Federation API: Integrating Data Across Pediatric Cancer Institutions
While advances have been made in pediatric cancer treatments, an ongoing challenge is improving outcomes for patients with rare cancer subtypes as well as patients with refractory or recurrent disease. A continuing barrier is the siloing of data across institutions, preventing researchers from assembling the large cohorts necessary to study cancer mechanisms and develop novel therapies. To address this issue, the NCI’s Childhood Cancer Data Initiative (CCDI) developed the CCDI Federation API in 2022, creating a platform that aggregates and integrates clinical and research data from multiple pediatric cancer institutions. Developed in collaboration with Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, Pediatric Cancer Data Commons, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, and Treehouse Childhood Cancer Initiative, the Federation API was designed to be easily integrated into other NCI resources and includes detailed implementation guides for new participating institutions. The Federation API empowers users to discover, access, and visualize data on hundreds of thousands of samples from thousands of patients, accelerating novel scientific discoveries and enhancing data access for researchers, clinicians, patients, and families.
