: Data collection within the cancer registry has been carried out according to the Cancer Registry Act of Baden-Württemberg. The notifying physician must inform the patient of the content of the notification and the further processing and use of his/her data by the authorities named in the Cancer Registry Act by handing out an information sheet and documenting the information in text form. The patient is informed that he/she has the right to object [§ 4 (2)]. The epidemiological cancer registry Baden-Württemberg is allowed to use the data for clinical-epidemiological analyses [§ 6 (2), § 7 (1)]. Due to the regulations in the Cancer Registry Act of Baden-Württemberg and as only anonymized data were used for the analyses, approval of an Ethical Committee is not necessary.
