• N3C represents a unique resource to examine effects of COVID-19 on cancer outcomes • Largest COVID-19 and cancer cohort within the US • Consistent with previous literature, older age, male gender, increasing comorbidities, and hematological malignancies were associated with higher mortality in patients with cancer and COVID-19 • The N3C dataset confirmed that cancer patients with COVID-19 who received recent immuno-, or targeted therapies were not at higher risks of overall mortality

4 What is Real World Data?

Collected in the context of patient care. Real World Data was called out as part of the 21st Century Cures Act

21st Century Cures Act: https://www.fda.gov/regulatory-information/selected-amendments-fdc-act/21st-century-cures-act Graphic from HealthCatalyst: https://www.healthcatalyst.com/insights/real-world-data-chief-driver-drug-development Current sources of data

Our ability to generate biomedical data continues to grow in terms of variety and volume

icons by the Noun Project AI is changing our ability to go both deep and broad

Trustworthy AI Reusable Provenance Reproducible Having a health equity lens

● Digital Health, precision medicine, and real world data all have the power to transform healthcare. However, we must pay attention to structural racism and implicit bias if we want to achieve equity. 21st Century Cures Act

Last year I discussed the NCI Cancer Moonshot and Precision Medicine activities funded under the 21st Century Cures Act FDA was directed by congress to focus on the use of RWD and RWE in drug design, development and outcomes assessment https://www.fda.gov/regulatory-information/selected- amendments-fdc-act/21st-century-cures-act Is it just about Real World Data?

What about Open Science? Data transparency? Data Access? The importance of Open Science

Calls for greater transparency and ‘open data access’ in clinical research continue actively. ● “Open science is the movement to make scientific research, data and dissemination accessible to all levels of an inquiring society”* ● Open Science Project**: “If we want open science to flourish, we should raise our expectations to: Work. Finish. Publish. Release.” ● FAIR Principles: Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reusability*** ● TRUST Principles: Transparency, Responsibility, User focus, Sustainability and Technology * https://www.fosteropenscience.eu/resources ** http://openscience.org/ *** https://www.nature.com/articles/sdata201618 ****https://www.nature.com/articles/s41597-020-0486-7 Open Science and Patient Data Access

Some of the challenges are: ● Patient privacy ● Academic credit ● Commercial sensitivity and intellectual property ● Data standards ● Resources (money and people)

There should be room for researchers and patients alike to gain from this effort.

Informatics experts and data scientists are essential elements of this discussion. One problem with Clinical Trials Data Sharing

● “The tendency for researchers to ‘‘sit’’ on their data for an unduly long period of time is neither desirable from a scientific point of view nor acceptable from an ethical perspective. ‘

● ‘After all, the data belong to the patients who agreed to participate in the research, not to the investigators who coordinated it, as the new European General Data Protection Regulation emphasizes.”*

*Rockhold, F, et al. Open science: The open clinical trials data journey, Clinical Trials, Vol 16 (5) 1-8, 2019 Access to patient-level data is important for research

There are certainly challenges, but question is not whether data should be shared, but rather how and when access should be granted. Responsible open access enables secondary analyses that:

● Enhance reproducibility of clinical research ● Honor the contributions of trial participants, ● Improve the design of future trials ● Generate new research findings

This journey of making patient data available is part of an evolution in transparency and not a sudden awakening. What about N3C?

It is an open science, controlled access environment Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSA) Program A program of NIH’s National Center The pandemic highlights urgent needs for Advancing Translational Sciences

● Algorithms (diagnosis, triage, predictive, etc.) ● Drug discovery & pharmacogenetics ● Multimodal analytics (EHR, imaging, genomics) ● Interventions that reduce disease severity ● Best practices for resource allocation ● Coordinated research efforts to maximize efficiency and reproducibility

These all require the creation of a comprehensive clinical data set What Kinds of Questions Can N3C Address? A program of NIH’s National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences

The scope and scale of the information in the platform will support probing questions such as: ● What social determinants of health are risk factors for mortality? ● Do some therapies work better than others? By region? By demographics? ● Can we compare local rare clinical observations with national occurrences? ● Can we predict who might have severe outcomes if they have COVID-19? ● What factors will predict the effectiveness of vaccines? ● Can we predict acute kidney injury in COVID-19 patients? ● Who might need a ventilator because of lung failure? Cohort characterization objectives A program of NIH’s National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences

To clinically characterize the N3C cohort ● Largest U.S. COVID-19 cohort to date (+ representative controls) + ● Racially, ethnically, and geographically diverse

To develop and share validated, versioned OMOP representations of common variables (labs, vital signs, medications, treatments)

To generate hypotheses to be tested within N3C and elsewhere ● Clinical phenotypes and trajectories ? ● Treatment patterns and response ● … and many others Benefits for Participation A program of NIH’s National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences

●Access to large scale COVID-19 data from across the nation

●Pilot data for grant proposals

●Opportunities for KL2 and TL1 and other scholars

●Team science opportunities for new questions and access to Teams, statistics, machine learning (ML), informatics expertise

●Learn ML analytics, NLP methods & access to tools, software, additional datasets Step 4. FederatedWho is in Analytics the N3C? with HPC A program of NIH’s National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences The N3C Computable Phenotype ● At a high level, our phenotype looks for patients: ○ With a positive COVID-19 test (PCR or antibody) OR ○ With an ICD-10-CM code of U07.1 OR ○ Two or more COVID-like diagnosis codes (ARDS, pneumonia, etc.) during the same encounter, but only on or prior to 5/1/2020 ● Each one of these patients is then demographically matched to two patients with negative or equivocal COVID-19 tests.

Step 4.How Federated does data Analytics get into N3C? with HPC A program of NIH’s National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences ● We have gone through the high-level purpose – EHR data about COVID-19 patients ● Identified the contributing sites ● Know what the inclusion criteria for N3C is – documented COVID-19 testing ● Seen the dashboard overview of N3C and the overall cohort characteristics

● What are the data ingestion, harmonization, query, and publication processes?

● Data governance and security?

● And finally, what about cancer and COVID-19? Leveraging Common Data Models A program of NIH’s National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences

● These four data models are commonly used by academic medical centers throughout the US. ● CDMs are used to store EHR data in a consistent way. ● Sites participating in N3C may send data in one of these four formats—the idea is to make it as convenient as possible for sites to submit. ● Common data models also allow us to write a consistent computable phenotype that can be run with few local changes at sites with one or more of these data models.

Noha Sharafeldin, MBBCh, PhD 77 Conclusions

• N3C represents a unique resource to examine effects of COVID-19 on cancer outcomes • Largest COVID-19 and cancer cohort within the US • Consistent with previous literature, older age, male gender, increasing comorbidities, and hematological malignancies were associated with higher mortality in patients with cancer and COVID-19 • The N3C dataset confirmed that cancer patients with COVID-19 who received recent immuno-, or targeted therapies were not at higher risks of overall mortality

● N3C is an innovative partnership between clinical sites, CDM communities, NIH ICs, CD2H, and commercial partners

● Automation of data extraction and minimum requirements reduces burden and increases site participation

● Robust attribution of all contributors; also provides great venue for trainees

● N3C data is complicated, but there are many people and resources to help users do good science How to Get Involved with N3C A program of NIH’s National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences
