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

| 5-ALA and Gliadel Wafers | This is a single arm feasibility study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of combining 2 technologies (5-ALA and Gliadel wafers) in the surgical management of patients with GBM. 5-ALA: 5-ALA is used to generate tumour specific fluorescence as an aid to surgical resection of GBM, prior to the insertion of Gliadel wafers Gliadel wafers: The implantation of Carmustine Wafers (Gliadel) delivers carmustine- (3-bis 2-chloroethyl 1-1-nitrosourea (BCNU)) directly into the surgical cavity created after tumour resection. | None | None | 26 | 59 | 23 | 59 | View |
