The UroCCR Network currently comprises about 60 multidisciplinary clinical teams.
It represents an international, multidisciplinary medico-scientific network gathering together experts from various specialties. The Network aims to enhance patient management, therapeutic development, and applied research on kidney cancer by leveraging a health data warehouse that supports the development of innovative and collaborative projects.

Identification of available data sources to meet the demands of the French National Authority for Health.
The ANR-labeled UroDM project aims to highlight the clinical expertise of the UroCCR medico-scientific network’s hospital teams. It achieves this by facilitating rapid access to clinical investigations and promoting the development of Medical Devices (MDs) in the fields of surgery and imaging.
UroDM is based on the establishment of a dedicated Medical Device Support Desk within the UroCCR network. This desk provides major support to companies, offering them access to a high-level, interdisciplinary scientific and medical environment.
Algorithms based on artificial intelligence (AI) have been developed and validated using the database. Their application offers new perspectives for improving personalised patient management, optimising therapeutic strategies, and strengthening clinical research in urology.
