New Real Dataset Creation to Develop an Intelligent System for Predicting Chemotherapy Protocols

Breast cancer is the most common cancer diagnosed in women. In developing countries, controlling this scourge is often problematic due to late diagnosis and the lack of medical and human resources. Automation and optimization of treatment is then needed to improve patient outcome. The use of medical datasets could, according to medical staff and pharmacists, assist them in clinical decision-making and would allow for better use of resources especially when limited. In our paper, a new real dataset was produced by collecting medical and personal data from 601 patients with breast cancer at the University Hospital Center (UHC) Mohammed VI of Marrakech. Data of women diagnosed with breast cancer from January 2018 at UHC were assessed. Most patients were 24-85 year-old, with an average age of 48.84 years. Patient age, performance status (PS), cancer stage and subtype, treatment patterns and correlations among the different variables were analyzed. The created dataset will help to determine the most appropriate treatment regimen depending on the individual characteristics of patients to allow for better use of limited resources.
