Adverse Events Module

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

NCT ID: NCT01898494
Description: Serious adverse events are defined as grade 3 or higher adverse events that are possibly, probably, or definitely related to protocol therapy. Other adverse events are defined as grade 1 or grade 2 adverse events that are possibly, probably, or definitely related to protocol therapy with a frequency of at least 5% in a given arm. All patients enrolled are included in all-cause mortality analysis. Patients who received treatment with adverse event data available are included in AE analysis.
Frequency Threshold: 5
Time Frame: Assessed weekly during the 7 weeks of treatment, then every 2 months up to 2 years post-registration, then every 6 months up to 3 years post-registration
Study: NCT01898494
Study Brief: Transoral Surgery Followed By Low-Dose or Standard-Dose Radiation Therapy With or Without Chemotherapy in Treating Patients With HPV Positive Stage III-IVA Oropharyngeal Cancer
