During 2004 and 2012 the german cancer aid supported the german glioma network (GGN). The GGN is a consortium where university hospitals with clinical focus in neuro-oncology, reference centers for neuroradiology, neuropathology, molecular diagnostics and biometry cooperate. Thanks to the long-term support it was possible to build a network of competence centers for the treatment of brain tumors in Germany wich is characterized by a interdisciplinary collaboration of all specialist disciplines

The joint project "MMML Demonstrators" deals with improvements in the diagnosis and therapy of lymphoma and consists of seven subprojects. In lymphoma, the so-called diffuse large cell B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL) are responsible for the highest number of deaths. Although the disease is curable in principle, approximately one third of patients still die. However, the expression of certain genes in tumor cells and surrounding tissues can be used to diagnose certain subgroups of these tumors and, in

A dataset with information on cancer history, mutation status and surveillance history for more than 100 000 study patients is provided in i2b2 (Informatics for Integrating Biology and the Bedside, http://www.i2b2.org/software). Members of the German Consortium for Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer can request access to i2b2 and will be able to perform database queries independently, e.g. with regard to identify suitable patient populations for scientific evaluation projects.

Based on the assumption that molecular mechanisms involved in cancerogenesis are characterized by groups of coordinately expressed genes, we developed and validated a novel method for analyzing transcriptional data called Correlated Gene Set Analysis (CGSA). Using 50 extracted gene sets we identified three different profiles of tumors in a cohort of 364 Diffuse large B-cell (DLBCL) and related mature aggressive B-cell lymphomas other than Burkitt lymphoma. The first profile had high level of

The platform is intended for visualization of expression- and mutation-driven changes in biological pathway activities in cancer datasets available in ICGC. The impact of somatic mutations on protein-protein interactions were calculated using Mechismo. Overall activity of biological pathway was evaluated using Pathway Signal Flow algorithm. The application provides interactive heatmaps for pathway output sink node activities and pathway images with mapped affected interactions and output node

Depending on the calculated mutation probability genetic counsellors can decide whether patients should undergo further analysis of microsatellite instability and immunohistochemistry. The model is recommended for patients with an age at colorectal cancer diagnosis of 55 or younger.

The PREMM1,2,6 has been developed as a pretest to decide whether patients suspected of having Lynch syndrome should be tested for germline mismatch repair gene mutations.
"PREMM1,2,6" is a logistic regression model. It calculates the risk of having a mutation in the mismatch repair genes MLH1, MSH2 and MSH6 (for single genes and overall) based on the personal and familial cancer history of the proband (colorectal, endometrial, and other Lynch syndrome related cancers).
