One of our goals is to integrate genomic and epidemiological data with clinical data on therapy outcome and survival in order to identify genetic factors that affect these factors. We are currently collecting data from cases on surgical procedures, chemotherapy (type, doses, duration, cycles, and breaks), radiation therapy (type, duration, dose, equipments, and breaks), major toxicities, ECOG performance status, recurrence, smoking after lung cancer diagnosis, vital status through the Vital Statistic Office, and death certificates through the Local Health Units (causes of death are coded following the ICD IX).
