However, the underlying cause of the phenomenon has not been well identified. Although, advance of genomic research has developed new understanding of biomolecular mechanisms of gynecologic cancers, the access to a wide collection of biospecimens coupled with epidemiological and clinical data for a valid genomic research is limited. To offer high-quality biosamples with comprehensive data of clinical phenotype, risk factors, clinical treatments, follow-up data of treatment effects and vital status. The research group has constructed a technology and management platform - the Taiwan Gynecologic Cancer Network to support clinical, molecular, epidemiological, and translational researches. The network is constituted by a uni-management center with multiple participating hospitals. Currently, three hospitals (National Taiwan University Hospital, Chi Mei Medical Center, and Taipei Veterans General Hospital) are in the network, and the sample collection is initiated and continuing. The network will maintain 9 to 11 co-operating hospitals. To collect more representative patients of gynecologic cancers with various ethnics, environmental and socioeconomic background, and life styles, we will select hospital in northern, central and southern Taiwan to join the network. Overall, the network plans to collect carcinoma in situ and invasive cervical cancer, uterine cancer, ovarian cancers and breast cancer, the expected case numbers are 1500, 1000, 1000, and 150 cases; respectively. The biospecimens in network includes tissues, plasma, peripheral blood mononucleated cells, and ascites. All the biospecimens will be stockpiled in each participating hospital without centralization, and will be provided to the applicants by random selection. Clinical information and patient self-reported data in the network include diagnosis, disease status , stage, medical history, family history of cancers and chronic diseases, menstrual history, hormone use, physical activity, quality of life and other disease relevant factors. A globally unique identification number transformed from several unique identifiers of each participant by a highly protected system is used for the storage of biosamples and information. Web base information system is applied for data collection and storage, administration, and biosample management. Also, the website (https://100sb204.cims.tw/) work as an interface between the Taiwan Gynecologic Cancer Network and researchers intending to apply the tissues and/or associated information. Also, it is a platform for applicants, management center and user committee to communicate with each other, and complete the application procedure. The network will play an essential role to tie chains of drug discovery together to support NRPB programs and pharmaceutical industries. The representative biosamples and comprehensive disease relevant data are able to discover previous unseen patterns in both pre-clinical and clinical research. The integration of biosample and data helps elucidate the link between genotype and phenotype, and control the confounding factors to construct valid studies. Additionally, biosamples with high quantity of biosamples in biobank shortens the time to collect statistically meaningful sample size. For clinical trial, the comprehensive disease relevant data in the network help make an accurate trial strategy. Additionally, in the future the infrastructure and the connection of the network can work as a management platform to facilitate multicenter clinical trials.The Establishment of a Clinico-Pathological Network and Bio-Specimen Bank on Women’s Cancers in Taiwan (I)
