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: NCT00477295
Description: For each AE category, a subject with two or more adverse events in that category is only counted once.
Frequency Threshold: 5
Time Frame: A Treatment-Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE) is an Adverse Event (AE) with a start date on or after Day 1 and within 15 days of last dose, including AEs with missing start dates, for up to 116 weeks.
Study: NCT00477295
Study Brief: A Double-blind Study to Compare the Efficacy and Safety of Zonisamide and Carbamazepine as Monotherapy, in Newly Diagnosed Partial Epilepsy

Event Groups

Title Description Deaths # Affected Deaths # At Risk Serious # Affected Serious # At Risk Other # Affected Other # At Risk View
Zonisamide The starting dose in this arm was zonisamide 100mg daily. The dose during the Titration Period (4 weeks) ranged from 100 to 200mg daily. During the Flexible Dosing Period (FDP), the subjects were given doses ranging from 300 to 500mg daily or if they could not tolerate that dose, were allowed one down-titration or were withdrawn. If the subjects remained seizure-free for 26 weeks by the end of FDP (the subject was allowed 3 chances to achieve this), they entered the Maintenance Period (26 weeks), where they remained on the same dose they were taking at the end of the FDP.

Carbamazepine The starting dose in this arm was carbamazepine 200mg daily. The dose during the Titration Period (4 weeks) ranged from 200 to 400mg daily. During the Flexible Dosing Period (FDP), the subjects were given doses ranging from 600 to 1200mg daily or if they could not tolerate that dose, were allowed one down-titration or were withdrawn. If the subjects remained seizure-free for 26 weeks by the end of FDP (the subject was allowed 3 chances to achieve this), they entered the Maintenance Period (26 weeks), where they remained on the same dose they were taking at the end of the FDP.
