Mieke Van Hemelrijck: Guy’s Cancer Cohort – Real World Evidence for Cancer Pathways

Mieke Van Hemelrijck, Professor of Cancer Epidemiology at King’s College London, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Excited to share our latest publication.

Our paper, “Guy’s Cancer Cohort – Real World Evidence for Cancer Pathways,” is now live in European Society for Medical Oncology Real World Data and Digital Oncology. This work represents the effort of a dedicated multidisciplinary team working to build and maintain one of the UK’s most comprehensive real-world oncology data resources.

Guy’s Cancer Cohort provides a powerful foundation for generating insights into cancer care pathways, treatment outcomes, and healthcare delivery — all grounded in real-world clinical practice. This is more than a dataset — it’s an engine for discovery, collaboration, and impact in oncology research.

Key highlights:

Longitudinal, routinely collected clinical data from a major UK cancer centre

Real-world evidence spanning multiple tumour types

A collaborative framework enabling academic and clinical partnerships

A big thank you to all the collaborators and contributors who made this possible. We hope this resource continues to empower research that directly benefits patients.”
