OncoSim 3.6 Release Notes

Current release: OncoSim 3.6 (Build 3.6.0.89) July 27, 2022 Previous release: OncoSim 3.5 (Build 3.5.0.90) April 28, 2022

What’s New ?

BREAST CANCER

  • Added output table Breast_Cancer_StageDist_AY_Table which provides stage distribution by year and age group.
  • Breast tables are subject to parameters found under “Tabulation controls for breast/cervical/colorectal/economics tables”. Akin to colorectal tables, cohort tables for breast cancer are still there ... for now. Among other things, any table can be turned into a cohort table. Hence dedicated/pure cohort tables are, in principle, no longer required.
  • Parameters BreastReportDensity and BreastReportKnownDensity were introduced to enhance the restriction/filtering tabulation functionality.
  • Parameters CohortBreastDensity and CohortKnownBreastDensity were introduced to enhance cohort definition.
  • Added row "Time without a screen test (years)" to dispatcher.
  • Added some missing labels and corrected a few typing errors.

CERVICAL CANCER

  • Table Cervical_Cancer_StageDist_Table is now by year and age group.
  • Corrected so-called zigzag zapper in past era of dispatcher.
  • Hysterectomies done with follow-up logic #2 now call for follow-up with PAP which calls for discharge if PAP is negative. This was not the case when Protocol/floor #2 and #4 were used (negative PAP would not lead to immediate discharge).
  • Added row "Time without a screen test (years)" to dispatcher.
  • Added table HPV_Cytology_Results_By_Lesion_Dnatest_Table.

COLORECTAL CANCER

  • Changed age group for Colorectal_Cancer_Outcomes_GASY_UP_Table from AGE_GROUP10 to FROM_45_TO_80_BY_5. Years changed from ASSESS_SCREEN_YEAR to REPORT_YEAR.

LUNG CANCER

  • Added two input parameters to enable perfect screening prognosis:
    • Perfect screening prognosis (only screening participants),
    • Survival time for the perfect screening prognosis.
  • Unhid the input parameter that restricts some LC output whole population tables to user-defined cohort tables.
  • Removed seven lung cancer user-defined cohort output tables (and its user-defined discounted version if applies), keeping only one version of the following tables:
    1. Lung cancer cases by province, sex and year,
    2. Lung cancer rates by province, sex and year (rate per 1000),
    3. Lung cancer management direct health care costs by treatment type and stage, by province and year,
    4. Lung cancer direct health care costs by treatment type and how cancer was detected, by province and year,
    5. Lung cancer outcomes (cost and QALY) by province and year,
    6. Over-detected lung cancer outcomes by year,
    7. Lung cancer screening outcomes by province for pooled years.
  • Extended the year dimension of two output tables to be able to switch between whole population and user-defined cohort version (by replacing the year range [2015,2051] by [2015,2110]). The output tables impacted by this change are
    • Lung cancer cases by province, sex and year,
    • Lung cancer rates by province, sex and year (rate per 1000).
  • Enabled to restrict the “lung cancer screening outcomes by province and year” output table to user-defined cohort, keeping the year filter condition of the whole population version.
  • Filter condition included to restrict the whole population tables to user-defined cohort tables in the following LC tables:
    • Smoking cessation outcomes by year,
    • Smoking cessation outcomes.
  • Removed commented out code.

ALL CANCERS

  • Fixed the following 3 tables
    • All_Cancer_Attributed_Cases_Alberta
    • All_Cancer_Cases_After_Intervention
    • All_Cancer_Cases_After_Intervention_Discounted
  • Reverted to overall survival from staged survival
  • Commented out output table OncoSim 3.6 release notes Last updated: July 27, 2022
