For researchers submitting trial data to ClinicalTrials.gov, the Adverse Events module is one of four mandatory results sections. It requires reporting in three primary categories: All-Cause Mortality: A table tracking all deaths that occurred during the study, regardless of cause. Serious Adverse Events (SAEs): A tabular summary of events resulting in death, life-threatening conditions, hospitalization, or significant disability. Other Adverse Events: A table for non-serious events that exceed a specific frequency threshold, such as 5% within any study arm.
Adverse Events Module path is as follows:
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Event Groups
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Serious Events
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Other Events
| Title | Description | Deaths # Affected | Deaths # At Risk | Serious # Affected | Serious # At Risk | Other # Affected | Other # At Risk | View |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Continuous Hormonal Therapy | Patients continue to receive goserelin 3.6 mg subcutaneously once a month and oral bicalutamide 50 mg once daily until progression of disease | None | None | 19 | 732 | 665 | 732 | View |
| Intermittent Hormonal Therapy | Patients are cycled between observation periods and Combined Androgen Deprivation (CAD) periods based on PSA results. Patients undergo observation in the absence of rising prostate-specific antigen (PSA) or clinical symptoms of progressive disease. Patients with rising PSA or progressive disease begin CAD therapy (goserelin 3.6 mg subcutaneously once a month and oral bicalutamide 50 mg once daily ). Patients whose PSA normalizes after 8 cycles of CAD treatment return to observation. Patients whose PSA does not normalize after 8 cycles of CAD treatment continue CAD therapy until progression (1 cycle of CAD treatment = 7 months with 8 injections. There are 2 injections in the first month on Days 1 and 29). | None | None | 10 | 702 | 609 | 702 | View |
