Klinische Landesregisterstelle Baden‐Württemberg GmbH

The Krebsregister Baden-Württemberg (KRBW) is a central institution for the collection and evaluation of data on cancer diseases in Baden-Württemberg. Based in Heidelberg, it is closely linked to the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ). The main task of the register is to document all cancer diseases in the federal state and to track the treatments and the course of the diseases.

• Database for Cancer Diseases: The cancer registry collects comprehensive data on the frequency, treatment and course of cancer diseases in Baden-Württemberg.
• Support for Cancer Research: By processing and evaluating the data, the register supports scientific studies and the development of new therapies.
• Quality Assurance of Oncological Care: The register helps to evaluate the effectiveness of treatments and improve the quality of care.

The main mission of the cancer registry is to research and improve cancer treatment and to reduce the disease burden from cancer. The values include the completeness and quality of the data, which play a crucial role in the usability of the register. A reporting obligation for all doctors who diagnose or treat cancer ensures a comprehensive data collection.

• Improvement of Early Detection Programs: The register helps to evaluate and optimize the effectiveness of early detection programs.
• Promotion of Clinical-Epidemiological Research: By providing data, the register supports scientific research and studies that contribute to the development of new treatment methods.
• Increasing Patient Safety: By ensuring the quality of oncological care, the register contributes to improving patient outcomes.

The work of the Krebsregister Baden-Württemberg is of central importance for cancer research and the improvement of care for cancer patients in the region.
