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: NCT03502616
Description: Same event may appear as AE and serious AE, what is presented are distinct events. Event may be categorized as serious in 1 participant and as non-serious in another participant or 1 participant may have experienced both serious and non-serious event during study. Safety analysis set included all participants who were randomized and received at least one dose of the investigational product (i.e., tofacitinib or placebo).
Frequency Threshold: 5
Time Frame: For the first 2 arms: (tofacitinib and Placebo [up to Week 16]): Baseline to Week 16 and for the next 2 arms (tofacitinib and placebo then tofacitinib [Day 1 to Week 48]): Baseline to Week 48
Study: NCT03502616
Study Brief: Efficacy and Safety of Tofacitinib in Subjects With Active Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS)
