| Abstract | Interventional oncology is a rapidly growing sub-speciality that aims to develop new disease-modifying treatment options beyond conventional surgical and oncological therapies in several disease settings. The evidence for interventional oncology success is dominated by single-arm studies reporting technical success or clinical efficacy. These studies have successfully resulted in the development of new techniques, but are not sufficient to change clinical practice uniformly across health-care systems. This Review discusses why clinical investigators must incorporate measures of cost-effectiveness and patient-reported outcomes into large-scale studies currently being designed to provide robust evidence for changing clinical practice. In particular, interventional oncology trials could be designed to show that certain treatments may be as effective as the current standard of care, but with significantly less morbidity and with better outcomes for patients with cancer. Innovative trial design and awareness of the challenges from interventional studies in other fields of medicine and surgery are also discussed to demonstrate how this new speciality can make progress. Registry-based models are emerging as an alternative means of deriving cohort data and can be used in parallel with local or national commissioning of new services. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
