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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lamotrigine | Lamotrigine therapy was initiated at 25 mg/day and increased to 200 mg/day using a slow upward titration over 5 weeks. After that time additional increases in 100 mg/day increments to a maximum of 400 mg/day were made if the medication was well tolerated and signs of poor response were noted. | None | None | 5 | 55 | 6 | 55 | View |
| Placebo | Placebo group received medication in identical color/sizes as the lamotrigine group. Placebo therapy was initiated at 25 mg/day and increased to 200 mg/day using a slow upward titration over 5 weeks. After that time additional increases in 100 mg/day increments to a maximum of 400 mg/day were made if the medication was well tolerated and signs of poor response were noted. | None | None | 4 | 57 | 4 | 57 | View |
