Data collection arrangements
Each site will identify CML patients within their hospital Trust and after informed consent has been taken (the date of which will be stored in the system), the initial data collection process can take place via the web based interface. The data will be stored on a secure server at The Royal Liverpool University Hospital Trust. The UK National CML Registry Project Manager will have full back end access to all data to ensure that all security measures are not breached.
Research programme
The NCRI CML group set up a series of annual CML patient/carer open days in 2002. These have evolved into annual meetings which tour the country, and are led by the active patient group CMLsupport.org. Several national CML experts regularly contribute to these, including the applicant. The notion of extending the current North of England/Wales registry to the whole UK has been welcomed by cmlsupport.org. It is envisaged to continue to involve that group in the work, and to present findings at their meeting of Oct/Nov 2016, together with plans for the further evolution of the registry.
