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

| Advanced Melanoma | For patients in the advanced melanoma cohort, a one-time blood sample will be obtained prior to the commencement of systemic therapy at a time when standard-of-care blood will be drawn. While it is ideal to obtain samples prior to any systemic therapy, participants who have previously received therapy, have progressed, and are in need of additional therapy will be considered suitable for participation. Participants with known BRAF mutation (determined by standard of care tissue testing) will undergo blood draws every 4 weeks (+/- 1 week) and at the time of disease progression. | 68 | None | 0 | 110 | 0 | 110 | View |
| Stage II/III Melanoma | For patients in the high-risk stage II/III cohort, a blood draw will be performed 4-8 weeks after the completion of surgical management at the time of standard of care blood work. In participants who sign informed consent prior to definite surgical management, a pre-operative blood draw may be obtained at the time that standard of care pre-op blood work is performed. Blood samples will then be obtained every three months following the initiation of either adjuvant therapy or routine, close follow-up for up to two years. | 40 | None | 0 | 110 | 0 | 110 | View |
