Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Project
The Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) is an NCI terminology that is used for reporting adverse events that occur during NCI sponsored clinical trials. The CTCAE Version 3.0 terminology is a dictionary of adverse events and grading criteria for all modalities used in the treatment of cancer. The caBIG™ Vocabularies and Common Data Elements (VCDE) Workspace and NCI Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program (CTEP) are conducting a project to revise the CTCAE terminology. A Steering Committee and Advisory Board have been established to address governance, computer support and project management issues. The goals of the CTCAE 3.0 revision project are to:
Who should get involved?The revision of CTCAE Version 3.0 will be performed by members of 12 working groups each addressing adverse events falling under one or more of MedDRA's System Organ Classes. The VCDE Workspace is seeking clinician subject matter experts to join the CTCAE project working groups. The working groups will be small, collaborative, and will ideally contain representation of the clinical trialist and clinical research reporting points of view. Please contact the project manager, Ranjana Srivastava to become a Working Group member or if you have any other questions. Contact InformationRanjana Srivastava: srivastava_ranjana@bah.com |
