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

| A. Conventional Arm | This is considered the standard of care arm for photodynamic therapy for the treatment of actinic keratosis. This treatment arm includes: Acetone preparation, ALA topical application, 1 hour incubation, 16 minutes 40 seconds (16:40) BLU-U exposure, application of sunscreen. Drug intervention: Aminolevulinic acid HCl (ALA) topical solution 20% Device: BLU-U blue light phototherapy illuminator Aminolevulinic Acid Topical 20% Topical Solution: PDT involves the topical application of aminolevulinic acid (ALA), or one of its derivatives, as a photosensitizing agent. Subjects will receive ALA in all treatment arms (A, B, and C). BLU-U blue light phototherapy illuminator: Depending on the treatment arm, subjects will either receive BLU-U exposure or not. Treatment arms A and B have BLU-U exposure and treatment arm C does not. | 0 | None | 0 | 8 | 8 | 8 | View |
| B. Combination Arm | This treatment arm combines standard of care BLU-U exposure and daylight exposure. This treatment arm includes: Acetone preparation, ALA topical application, 15 minute incubation, 16:40 BLU-U exposure, application of sunscreen, 45 minute daylight exposure. Drug intervention: Aminolevulinic acid HCl (ALA) topical solution 20% Device: BLU-U blue light phototherapy illuminator Aminolevulinic Acid Topical 20% Topical Solution: PDT involves the topical application of aminolevulinic acid (ALA), or one of its derivatives, as a photosensitizing agent. Subjects will receive ALA in all treatment arms (A, B, and C). BLU-U blue light phototherapy illuminator: Depending on the treatment arm, subjects will either receive BLU-U exposure or not. Treatment arms A and B have BLU-U exposure and treatment arm C does not. | 0 | None | 0 | 8 | 8 | 8 | View |
| C. Daylight Arm | This is the experimental arm. This treatment arm includes: Acetone preparation, ALA topical application, 15 minute incubation, application of sunscreen, 1 hour daylight exposure. Drug intervention: Aminolevulinic acid HCl (ALA) topical solution 20% Device: none Aminolevulinic Acid Topical 20% Topical Solution: PDT involves the topical application of aminolevulinic acid (ALA), or one of its derivatives, as a photosensitizing agent. Subjects will receive ALA in all treatment arms (A, B, and C). | 0 | None | 0 | 8 | 8 | 8 | View |
