If the disease/condition term does not exist in the CTRP database nor the NCIt database, you can request a new term directly from EVS.

How to Request a New Term

  1. On the menu, click Manage NCIt Terms.
    The Manage NCIt Terms page displays a menu for managing disease terms.
    Manage NCIt Disease Terms menu
  2. Click Manage NCIt Disease Terms > EVS New Term Request Form.
    The EVS Term Suggestion page appears in a new browser tab.
  3. Follow the instructions on the form, and then click Submit.

After the EVS curators email you once they have fulfilled your request, you can enter new term details. See Entering Disease/Condition Terms.
