The Prostate Cancer DREAM Challenge: A Community-Wide Effort to Use Open Clinical Trial Data for the Quantitative Prediction of Outcomes in Metastatic Prostate Cancer

Abstract

Project Data Sphere and Sage Bionetworks/DREAM are launching the Prostate Cancer DREAM Challenge to improve a predictive model of disease progression and treatment toxicity in prostate cancer using historical trial data. Predictions identified through this challenge have the potential to translate into reduced trial redundancy, better clinical decision tools, and improved patient outcomes. The challenge launches on March 16, 2015.
