As NGS in cancer patients was started to be covered by Korean national insurance system from this year, many Korean hospitals in OHDSI network are just beginning to collect genomic data in caner patients.
18,000+ cases of Foundation Medicine (FMI) single nucleotide variants now available in the NCI Genomic Data Commons (GDC). (enter link description here) If clinical and genomic information of such open databases can be converted into CDM, it will be combined with real world CDM data to create strong evidences.
I think oncology working group can cooperate with genomic data group for this ambitious goal, since it has been hard to convert clinical information in open genomic database into OMOP-CDM until now.
