Declarations
:
: Research ethics approval was granted by the Yorkshire and the Humber – Sheffield Research Ethics Committee (REC reference: 16/YH/0213). This study was performed in line with the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki. All published data are anonymised and non-identifiable.
: Not applicable.
: This data uses anonymised pooled data from multiple national datasets. In line with published guidance, such work does not require individual informed patient consent. All published data are anonymised and non-identifiable. There is a data-sharing agreement (DSA) in place between NHS England/Digital and our team (“Computational Oncology Laboratory” hosted at Imperial College London) that specifies that we’re allowed to publish aggregated patients’ data in peer-reviewed journals. Further to the DSA, we also have Research Ethics Committee (REC) approvals that gave us permission to publish aggregated patients’ data in peer-reviewed journals. Finally, and further to the DSA and REC approvals, we’re using routinely-collected data captured by NHS England, which uses the legal basis of Articles 6(1)(c) and 9(2)(g) of the UK GDPR.
