Critical to the clinical evaluation of effective novel therapies for lung cancer is the early and accurate determination of tumor response, which requires an understanding of the sources of uncertainty in tumor measurements and subsequent attempts to minimize their impact on the assessment of the agent. The Reference Image Database to Evaluate Response (RIDER) project seeks to develop a consensus approach to the optimization and benchmarking of software tools for the assessment of tumor response to therapy and to provide a publicly available database of serial images acquired during lung cancer drug and radiation therapy trials. Images of phantoms and patient images acquired under situations of certain no change in tumor size or biology also will be provided. The RIDER project will create standardized methods for benchmarking software tools to reduce sources of uncertainty in vital clinical decisions such as whether a specific tumor is responding to therapy.
