St. Jude and Partners Develop Data Platform Unifying Blood Cancer Genomics and Clinical Data

St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, the American Society for Hematology, and Munich Leukemia Laboratory have developed the ASH HematOmics Program (ASHOP), a data-sharing platform that integrates genomics, gene expression, and clinical information from nearly 6,000 blood cancer patients. The platform combines large pediatric and adult datasets with built-in analysis tools, creating one of the most comprehensive blood cancer data collections available to date. By uniting previously siloed genomic and clinical information, ASHOP aims to accelerate research discoveries and improve treatment outcomes for patients with hematologic malignancies.
