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

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Placebo+Chemotherapy | Chemotherapy = cisplatin (or carboplatin) + etoposide. Placebo 15 mg/kg by intravenous (IV) infusion on Day 1 of each of the first four 21-day cycles during chemotherapy, followed by single agent administration until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, discontinuation from study, or death. Cisplatin 75 mg/m² IV on Day 1 of each of the first four 21-day cycles OR carboplatin (area under the curve \[AUC\]=5 mg/mL/min, per Calvert formula) IV on Day 1 of each of the first four 21-day cycles; etoposide 100 mg/m² on Days 1-3 of each of the first four 21-day cycles. | None | None | 11 | 47 | 31 | 47 | View |
