Spots Global Cancer Trial Database for Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Breast Cancer

Study Description

Brief Summary: This study compares two approaches of upfront chemotherapy in breast cancer.

Detailed Description: A Decision Support System (DSS) is an information system that supports business, medical, educational or organisational decision-making activities. DSSs fuse human knowledge and technology to support and improve decision-making. The area of precision oncology that supports the treatment of breast cancer has not only seen an increase in the availability of different treatment choices but also genomic tools to support the decision-making process. CDSSs have been available for use in clinical oncology practice for over a decade. However, there has been some criticism around the utility of CDSS in personalised medicine decision-making of breast cancer, with these systems often viewed as aids better suited to support the 'average' patient's requirements rather than personalised treatment for the individual patient. The purpose of the current study is to evaluate an innovative CDSS (MedicBK) platform based on the comparison of multiple treatments simultaneously in making care decisions taking into account the individual characteristics of patients, i.e., based on personalized evidence-based medicine.
