‍

The OSCAR DREAM is an extension of the OSCAR project. The activities in the DREAM project are approved and financially supported by the Innovation Fund Denmark.

The DREAM project continues to make efforts aimed towards realizing the potential in Danish health data. It wishes to do so by developing and testing solutions that have the potential to provide access to data from all electronic health record systems (EHR) in Denmark, enriching them with registry data and providing access in an anonymized form.

‍

The DREAM project has the following specific aims:

Ensure that data from all EHR systems in use in Denmark can be used for clinical research nationally and internationally by mapping EHR data to FHIR and OMOP standards within the field of oncology. 

  1. Develop an IT solution to support the mapping of EHR data, which can be integrated with EHR systems in Denmark.
  1. Develop a solution for the anonymization of EHR data and test it on a use case where data collected prospectively from patients receiving standard of care in phase 3 trials is substituted for retrospective EHR data from patients who have recently received standard of care, thus reducing the cost and increasing the speed of phase 3 trials.
  1. Expand the OSCAR Platform and preparing it for the accessing of EHR data from Danish regions combined with data from the Danish Health Data Authority and Statistics Denmark.
  1. Develop a model for shared services for clinical research that will enable researchers and clinicians to increase the speed with which clinical research is conducted whereby new insights can be integrated into clinical practice.
  1. Commercialize the technology for anonymization and external control arm services as a part of the service offering in the OSCAR project.
  1. Create a consortia of project partners aimed at commercializing the solutions developed in the OSCAR DREAM and the OSCAR projects internationally.
  1. Align project aims with the Ministry of Health and the Health Data Authority to ensure that analytical services tested in the project are aligned with the priorities in the future national Health Data Analysis Platform and the European Health Data Space (EHDS)
