Database objective | |
Main objective |
Objectives of the registry in terms of public health (surveillance, assessment):
The tumour registry is the only facility that can assess all of the actions taken over the last 20 years within the département in the field of prevention and screening (breast cancer, prostate cancer, colon-rectum cancer). The registry monitors incidence and survival for all cancers over time according to all prognostic factors, and provides information on all interval cancers occurring after a negative screening examination. - Objectives of the registry in terms of research: The registry is conducting a number of studies (alone or together with other French or European registry networks) to address the need for epidemiological knowledge: - Descriptive epidemiology: all data concerning cancer in the Hérault département is published and distributed at regular intervals to the whole medical community every two years i.e., incidence and mortality data. - Analytical epidemiology: relative survival, prevalence, cohort and case-control studies, interval cancers. - Prognostic factor studies: medico-economic studies, studies on therapies and healthcare channels. Data from the registry is used by the FRANCIM network in France and by the EUROCARE group at European level to estimate national and regional cancer incidence and prevalence in France, as well as survival analysis. |
Inclusion criteria | All new invasive tumours, as well as in situ breast, cervix, colorectal and bladder tumours, skin melanomas, bladder pTa and benign tumours of the central nervous system that are diagnosed in individuals living in Hérault, regardless of where they are treated. Only basocellular skin carcinoma are excluded from the registry. Contralateral breast tumours in the same patient are recorded but not counted in incidents, and are not sent to the FRANCIM common database, in accordance with the rules defined by the European Network Cancer Registry (ENCR) and FRANCIM (French cancer registry network certified by the National Registries Committee). |
