NET-QUBIC data release 10

To support scientific research, the Steering Committee of the NET-QUBIC Consortium decided to facilitate yearly data releases. In this tenth data release, data and samples of all 739 included patients and 262 caregivers collected up to 5 years follow-up are available.

The NET-QUBIC Data Warehouse and Biobank consists of longitudinal data of newly-diagnosed head and neck cancer patients and their informal caregivers. The primary objective of the NET-QUBIC-project is to describe the long-term course of quality of life in newly-diagnosed head and neck cancer patients and their informal caregivers and to identify cancer-related, personal, biological, psycho-behavioural, physical, lifestyle-related, and social determinants of quality of life. The intent of the NET-QUBIC DataWarehouse and Biobank is to support all kinds of scientific research in head and neck cancer patients and their informal caregivers.
