Taxonomy (NCIt, OncoTree, ICD), epidemiology (registries), genomics (open cohorts), variants and curated evidence (CIViC, ClinVar), therapies and regulatory status (by jurisdiction), clinical trials (ClinicalTrials.gov), and literature (PubMed) — linked through stable public identifiers and explicit match types.
Researchers, clinicians, analysts, journalists, patient advocates and developers who need the number and where it came from. The public API mirrors the site so nothing on the page is unavailable programmatically.
CancerIndex is designed, built and maintained by{' '} {AUTHOR_NAME} . Questions, corrections, licensing concerns and collaboration requests: {CONTACT_EMAIL}.
The platform — database, ingestion workers, API and web application — is hosted on{' '} {HOSTING_NAME} {' '} (www.maclustr.io), a private Apple-silicon compute cluster, and published through the MacLustr Tunnel.
The taxonomy backbone is live; epidemiology, genomics, trial and literature connectors are being brought online one at a time, each after a license review. Follow progress on the source registry and read the methodology.
