Mission of the ICR

Top Quality Cancer RegistrationFirst Class Epidemiological Research

Overarching aim To improve public health



PIN and Electronic Record Linkage in Iceland

• Personal Identification Number (PIN)• Used from birth to death for all contact with the

health system• Used for all types of data on individuals, e.g.

exposure-related information, financial system...• Therefore: Acquisition of data plus

epidemiological studies for public health purposes are effective and accurate

Patientinformation

Seeking explanations for discrepancies or looking for missing information, the registrars use online access to

the patient files of the National Hospital

When needed, the Medical Director requests additional information



ElectronicDataProcessing

USB keyData transferred to an ICR server

ICR serverA computer program processes data and

enters into ICR‘s database

ICR databaseInformation extracted for

incidence registration according to ENCR recommendations



Qualitycontrol

Pathology reports read by registrars

checking for inconsistencies and

information that can not be extracted electronically

Unresolved issues

reviewed by the Medical Director

International coding for morphology and

topography (SNOMED ->

ICD10, ICD-O3)

Built-in automatic checks plus annual IARC error checks

Dataprotection

The ICR receives, handles and stores sensitive data containing name and Personal Identification Number

Data handled according to Icelandic Data Protection Act which is based on EU's Data Protection Directive



Individualdata

Individual data delivered for research

Dependent on permissions from National Bioethics Committee and Data Protection Authority

Record linkage using PIN or replacing PIN with individual study numbers – key kept until end of study

•1954: Established by Icelandic Cancer Society (ICS) ICS - A grassroots organization aiming at prevention of cancer and benefitting cancer patients

• Nationwide cancer incidence since 1955

• 2007: Legislation on Directorate of Health and Public Health

- Nationwide cancer registration obligatory- Deliverance of data obligatory





Research

•Prognosis of cancer patients

• Nordic studies -> PIN numbers & Nationwide Health Registers

• Etiology of breast cancer – genes/environment

• BRCA2 mutations; risk, treatment, prognosis• International comparison – aggregate data

• Effects of population-based screening for cancer

International cooperation

1. Association of Nordic Cancer Registries (ANCR)

2. NORDCAN datbase – incidence, prevalence, mortality, survival

3. ALICCS – population-based follow-up study of Nordic childhood cancer patients

4. INCA – co-ordinated registration of prognostic variables and treatment of cancer

5. EUROCARE survival in Europe, HR studies

6. Cancer Incidence in 5 continents (CIV) -> GLOBOCAN

7. CONCORD – survival worldwideNomesco, OECD, WHO



Epidemiologicalstudies

Examplesofcurrentstudies• BRCA2mutations/proteinandcancer/survival





Research based on ICR

Over 600 published studies

ICR is for example used in >30 studies by the deCODE company on cancer genetics

A cancer registry needs to be in close contact with research



Implementation of Clincal Quality Registration in co-operation with Swedish INCA system and University HospitalImproved understanding of the nature of mutations in BRCA2 – clinical and preventive implications

Next 5 years - ICR



Efficient and accurate electronic record linkage with all types of databases allows high-quality registration and researchThe support of the grassroot organization ICS has enabled high-quality cancer registration plus epidemiological research in Iceland since 1954High-quality cancer registries constitute a very important tool for enhancing public health
