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

| Oncolo-GIST Arm - Patients | Patients assigned to this arm will discuss scan results revealing progressive disease with an Oncolo-GIST trained physician. Oncolo-GIST: Behavioral: Oncolo-GIST Oncolo-GIST is a brief, manualized communication intervention that guides oncologists in "gist communication" by itemizing 4 key steps in the process of imparting prognostic information. Topics covered include: Principles of introducing prognosis in the setting of worsened scan results Coupling communicating realistic prognoses with psychological support (e.g., saying "average life-expectancy is months…" with emphasizing that the oncology team "will always provide care for you") Addressing informational needs and psychological reactions Applying proven techniques for supporting patients who are reluctant to discuss prognosis. | 1 | None | 0 | 0 | 0 | 19 | View |
