MCL CDEs
Common Data Elements (CDEs) are standardized terms for the collection and exchange of data. For further information, please click here to see the NCI CBIIT CDE description page.
MCL Biospecimen CDEs
MCL Biospecimen CDEs (DRAFT) 4/6/2018
MCL Core CDEs
MCL Core CDEs (DRAFT) 4/27/2017
The Core CDEs contain information that all MCL studies should use. Examples of core CDEs are questions on patient demographics, family and medical history, previous cancers, smoking and alcohol use.
Organ and Working Group CDEs
Each working and organ group has a specific set of CDEs. For example, the genomics CDEs will contain questions on sequencing experiments, sample characteristics, library and platform details. The prostate CDEs will contain questions on Gleason scores, AJCC staging, and PSA test results.

To get started using the MCL CDEs:
- Download the MCL Core spreadsheet.
- Download the appropriate working group spreadsheet(s)
- Download the appropriate organ spreadsheet(s).
Note: You will need more than one spreadsheet to create all CDEs for your study. For example, if you are collecting genomic data from breast cancer studies, you will need the Core, Breast, and Genomics CDE spreadsheeets. You can also include any additional data that is specific to your site, study, or institution.
If you need help downloading the spreadsheets, deciding which CDEs to use, or any other CDE related help, please contact any of the Informatics CDE Contacts listed in the table above.
