Regional (North, East, South and West) MISCAN models for prostate, gastric and lung cancer will be developed, based on data of one exemplary country per region. New elements in these data collections are smoking history patterns, the amount of opportunistic PSA testing and the prevalence of H. pylori. The prostate cancer model will be cross validated by the UMIT TIROL model. Next, the EU-TOPIA web-based tool with options will be extended to simulate these new cancers. We will assist other countries in collecting data required in the web tool, application of the web tool and interpretation of the model results.
This task will be led by EMC, Netherlands.
