NCI Cancer Research Data Commons - Overviewimgcommcall
The NCI Cancer Research Data Commons aims to enable sharing of diverse cancer research data across institutions by providing easy access to data stored in domain-specific repositories through a common authentication and authorization mechanism. It utilizes a framework of reusable components including data nodes, a cancer data aggregator, and cloud resources to integrate genomic, imaging, proteomic, and other data types while controlling access. The goals are to facilitate discovery and analysis tools as well as sustainably sharing data publicly to advance cancer research.
Imaging Data Commons (IDC) - Introduction and intital approachimgcommcall
The document introduces the Imaging Data Commons (IDC) which will connect researchers to cancer image collections, metadata, and tools for searching, viewing, and analyzing imaging data and related data types. The IDC will build on existing technologies and collaborations, with an initial focus on radiology and pathology images stored in DICOM format. It will utilize public cancer image collections from the Cancer Imaging Archive and integrate with other nodes in the Cancer Research Data Commons. The team has experience with open-source imaging tools, cloud infrastructure, and standards development. The initial implementation phases will focus on defining the data model and use cases, evaluating existing tools, and developing a minimal viable product hosted on the Google Cloud platform.
The document discusses the Office of Cancer Clinical Proteomics Research (OCCPR) and its tumor characterization programs, including the Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC). CPTAC applies proteogenomics to characterize tumors and generate public resources of proteomic and genomic data. It builds on data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) by characterizing proteins and genes to understand cancer. CPTAC data, along with clinical and genomic data, can be found on the Genomic Data Commons (GDC) portal. The document provides information on accessing, exploring, and analyzing CPTAC and other proteomic data deposited on the GDC.
CPTAC Data Portal and Proteomics Data Commonsimgcommcall
The CPTAC Data Coordinating Center houses proteomic datasets from CPTAC studies in its public data portal and assay portal. It analyzes data through a common pipeline and enables high-speed access. The Proteomic Data Commons is being developed to provide unified access to mass spectrometry data from multiple sources and allow analysis tools to access data in the cloud. It currently hosts data from CPTAC studies and is working to integrate with other cancer research data clouds. The goal is to improve data sharing, reuse and reproducibility across proteomic studies.
The National Cancer Institute’s Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC) is a national effort to accelerate the understanding of the molecular basis of cancer through the application of large-scale proteome and genome analysis, or proteogenomics.
The PRISM semantic integration approach aims to integrate diverse datasets from The Cancer Imaging Archive by representing data using shared ontologies. This removes obstacles to combining data about the same individuals from different sources. The Arkansas Image Enterprise System (ARIES) is an instance of PRISM that integrates imaging, clinical, and cognitive data from three Parkinson's disease cohorts. Semantic representation allows linking image volumes to cognitive assessments across cohorts. Ongoing work expands data integration and develops semantic query tools.
New manual contours for evaluating lung segmentation algorithms, additional MRI sequences for prostate data, and three new pathology datasets were added to TCIA. Diffusion and dynamic contrast MRI were added to the QIN-Prostate-Repeatability collection. 2018 Crowds Cure Cancer data was also released. The CPTAC lung adenocarcinoma proteomics/clinical discovery cohort data is now available. An upcoming Community Call will discuss the CPTAC program and data access policies. Multiple TCIA datasets were used in an AI cancer detection paper covered by major media outlets. A paper also discussed vulnerabilities in radiomic signature development using the NSCLC dataset. The NBIA data portal was updated with species selection and automatic inclusion of annotation files.
This document summarizes the new features and improvements in the NBIA 7.0 GA Community Version release, including a new search interface, support for fielded text search, an improved data retriever application, upgrades for better Java support, and testing of load balancing capabilities.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.
Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
