Adverse Events Module
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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Escitalopram 20mg for 2 Weeks | 30 cognitively normal adults aged 60-85 will receive escitalopram 20mg for 2 weeks (upward titration as: 10mg for 5 days, then 20mg for 9 days); and amyloid beta levels in the CSF will be measured at baseline (before drug administration) and after 2 weeks of study drug (active or placebo). Participants will taper off medication following the 2nd CSF measurement. Escitalopram 20mg for 2 weeks: 30 cognitively normal adults aged 60-85 will receive escitalopram 20 mg for 2 weeks; amyloid beta levels in the CSF will be measured at baseline (before drug administration) and following the full study drug (i.e., active drug) administration. | 0 | None | 0 | 22 | 0 | 22 | View |
| Placebo (Sugar Pill) | 30 cognitively normal adults aged 60-85 will receive placebo for 2 weeks (upward titration as: 10mg for 5 days, then 20mg for 9 days) or 8 weeks (upward titration as: 10mg for 5 days, then 20mg for 51 days); and amyloid beta levels in the CSF will be measured at baseline (before drug administration) and after 2 or 8 weeks of study drug (active or placebo). Participants will taper off medication following the 2nd CSF measurement. Placebo: Additionally, 30 cognitively normal adults aged 60-85 will receive a placebo; amyloid beta levels in the CSF will be measured at baseline (before drug administration) and following the full study drug (i.e., placebo) administration. | 0 | None | 0 | 29 | 0 | 29 | View |
| Escitalopram 30mg for 8 Weeks | 30 cognitively normal adults aged 60-85 will receive escitalopram 30 mg for 8 weeks (upward titration as: 10mg for 5 days, then 20mg for 5 days; then 30 mg for 46 days); and amyloid beta levels in the CSF will be measured at baseline (before drug administration) and after 8 weeks of study drug (active or placebo). Participants will taper off medication following the 2nd CSF measurement. Escitalopram 30mg for 8 weeks: 30 cognitively normal adults aged 60-85 will receive escitalopram 30 mg for 8 weeks; amyloid beta levels in the CSF will be measured at baseline (before drug administration) and following the full study drug (i.e., active drug) administration. | 0 | None | 0 | 28 | 0 | 28 | View |
| Escitalopram 20mg for 8 Weeks | 30 cognitively normal adults aged 60-85 will receive escitalopram 20mg for 8 weeks (upward titration as: 10mg for 5 days, then 20mg for 51 days); and amyloid beta levels in the CSF will be measured at baseline (before drug administration) and after 8 weeks of study drug (active or placebo). Participants will taper off medication following the 2nd CSF measurement. Escitalopram 20mg for 8 weeks: 30 cognitively normal adults aged 60-85 will receive escitalopram 20 mg for 8 weeks; amyloid beta levels in the CSF will be measured at baseline (before drug administration) and following the full study drug (i.e., active drug) administration. | 0 | None | 0 | 8 | 0 | 8 | View |
