Article myCMIE: My cancer molecular information exchange

Molecular profiling reports (MPRs) are critical for determining treatment options for cancer patients. They include several pages of information on genomic findings, drugs, and trial options that are challenging to synthesize for effectively and expeditiously informing on treatment. Xu and Kowalski present a web application, myCMIE, that synthesizes MPR content to define a patient-centric, information system in which molecular profiles are exchanged between a query case(s) and public resources or user-input case series for context-informed treatment and conjecture with therapeutic implication. myCMIE offers an interactive build of coordinately connected digital-twin communities to expand our understanding of treatment context with multiple visuals to stimulate discussions among diverse stakeholders in care.

Molecular profiling reports (MPRs) are crucial for cancer treatment decisions, but synthesizing the complex information contained within them is challenging. Xu and Kowalski developed myCMIE, a web application that provides a patient-centric information system for exchanging molecular profiles and facilitating context-informed treatment options. myCMIE uses interactive digital-twin communities and visualizations to promote discussions among diverse stakeholders in healthcare.
