Results from Round 4 work was reviewed and approved by Dr. Robert Gray in May of 2013.  At that point the prescribed changes to the 16 modules of content began.  This work required the help of multiple curators since the standard elements come from a number of registry contexts.  Changes and in some places new CDEs were needed.  Once all changes to CDEs were made, the CRF modules were reviewed and revised, then validated again before being released.  The final step is a load of the standard templates into the NCI Standard form cart in the caDSR.  Work is scheduled

Work was originally scheduled to be completed by July 15, 2013, and most of the modules were finished by that date.  In a few cases activities to harmonize value sets, define data elements more concisely, add additional elements to imaging modules and revisit the categorization of content in the radiation therapy module required additional time.  Reviewers in RTOG, the NCI Cancer Imaging Program (CIP) and the ECOG-ACRIN group were very helpful in making needed revisions to the modules that required select and expert reviewers. 

By the close of October 2013 all changes to Round 4 content were completed and reviewed by the NCI CBIIT curation team.  CRFs were built in caDSR, the FormBuilder Form cart was updated, and this Wiki were all updated. .  The community will be notified when the content is complete and ready for use.

Please find below the executive summary for Round 4 which summarizes the deliverables by module.
