Worldwide Innovative Network Consortium: Building a Common Global Cancer Database.
Review in JCO global oncology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
This review shares the ongoing work of the global Worldwide Innovative Network (WIN) Consortium for Precision Medicine to synthesize emerging cancer treatment data and to define the requirements for a common global cancer database that can truly support precision oncology. We performed a narrative review of emerging cancer treatment data, molecular profiling technologies, and existing clinicogenomic databases, focusing on how tumors are characterized, how subgroups are defined, and how demographic, lifestyle, and environmental factors are captured. The growth in molecular profiling technologies and the development of new targeted therapies are transforming cancer care. Tumors, regardless of tissue origin, are increasingly defined as composites of multiple, often rare, subgroups, each with distinct biology and likely response to specific therapies, based on multidimensional profiling of the tumor and its microenvironment. The solution lies in building vast databases that capture racial and ethnic diversity, reflected in genomic data, as well as diet and lifestyle factors that may have epigenetic impact on gene expression and post-translational modifications. A truly inclusive and informative data set must reflect global diversity, and there are multiple examples of demography-dependent differences in genomic signals. With members caring for and studying patients with cancer across five continents, WIN is actively exploring pathways to create a global cancer database, rich in clinical and molecular detail, granular enough for precise analysis, and large enough to power artificial intelligence-driven insights, provided appropriate data quality, validation, and governance frameworks are in place. This review surveys the current landscape and outlines practical paths forward to achieve this goal.
