3. Research Needs for AYAO Each year, nearly 70,000 15-39 year olds are diagnosed with cancer.
Cancer is the leading disease killer among 20-39 year-olds.
Unlike younger and older cancer patients, survival rates for AYAs have not increased since 1975 and for 30-34 year olds range, survival has decreased
4.
Young adults tend to be diagnosed with different types of cancer than older and younger patients and their cancers may develop from different biological variables and, subsequently, require different treatments Why is AYAO unique?
5. AYAO Progress Review Group Recommendation 1 Identify the characteristics that distinguish the unique cancer burden in the AYAO patient.
Elucidate unique biologic characteristics of AYA cancers and AYA patients that affect disease outcome in this population.
Elucidate AYA life stage/developmental characteristics that influence care seeking, adherence to treatment, and medical and psychosocial outcomes.
Identify and ameliorate health disparities experienced by AYA cancer patients and survivors.
6. AYAO Progress Review Group Recommendation 3 Create the tools to study the AYA cancer problem
Create a large prospective database of AYA cancer patients to facilitate research on this age group.
Increase the number of annotated specimens to support research progress.
Create/modify needed assessment tools specific to AYA cancer issues.
Improve grant coding and search term standardization to enable evaluation of research efforts and progress.
Expand clinical trials for AYAs to increase treatment choices and accelerate treatment advances.

9. Concept Description Building an infrastructure to support biospecimen collection, storage, and sharing among academic sites
portal to enable querying and access to adolescent and young adult cancer biospecimens
Identifying necessary annotations to identify clinically-relevant information and collection and storage procedures
Integrating the specimen management systems into a centralized portal
Completing a policy and management needs assessment to address an operating model for a federated AYAO biorepository, formalize data sharing agreements, patient privacy and confidentiality, consent and re-consent for minors, individual right to data, and Intellectual property issues related to using data for research purposes
10. Goals and Vision
11. Concept Phases Discovery
Catalogue and Inventory
Collection protocols and storage conditions
QA/QC procedures
Architecture and Data Elements
Minimal Preliminary Dataset for information exchange
Standardize clinical annotations
Integration
Data portal and interface
Data sharing agreements
Proof of Concept and Test Environment
Policy and Management Needs Assessment
Accessibility
Define system of support for prospective research and expansion
12. Discovery Completion Targeted for Fall Catalogue and Inventory
Approximately 25-30k samples
6 centers, multiple satellite locations
Dozens of tumor types
Non-tumor biospecimen
Samples date back to 1980s
Collection protocols and storage conditions
All retrospectively collected samples
Varying storage conditions
Need to define appropriate reporting on protocols
QA/QC procedures
Need to define appropriate QA/QC data fields
Sample Tracking
13. Architecture and Data Elements Minimal Preliminary Dataset for information exchange
Define Common Data Elements
Patient Information
Biospecimen information
Standardize clinical annotations
caBIG compliance
14. Integration Data portal and interface
Development and coordination with sites
Information exchange
Hosting
Data sharing agreements
Adoption
15. Proof of Concept and Test Environment Policy and Management Needs Assessment
Patient consent
Minor re-consent
Formalized data sharing agreement
Sample acquisition
Publication
Accessibility
Patient information and privacy
Define system of support for prospective research and expansion
16. Required Resources
Architecture lead to model integration and build information infrastructure for non-caBIGŽ compliant sites
Integration lead to coordinate site activities
Policy lead to identify and finalize sharing agreements
17. Sequence and Timing Discovery Phase (inventory and cataloguing) targeted for mid to late Fall
Lightweight infrastructure and portal architecture targeted for Spring 2010
Environment and usability testing summer 2010
