Abstract
Cancer medicine has grown increasingly complex in recent years with the advent of precision oncology and wide utilization of multidrug regimens. Representing this increasingly granular knowledge is a significant challenge. As users and managers of a freely available chemotherapy drug and regimen database, we describe the changes we have made to accommodate these challenges. These include the development of a domain ontology and increased granularity in the classification of cancer types on the website.
