CRF Modules

Round #

Status

Status Description

Adverse Events

2

Final

Total of 31 CDEs built in two CRF standard modules – one to use with CTCAE v3.0 reporting requirements, and one for CTCAE v4.0 reporting requirements. AE modules include Serious Adverse Event (SAE) CDEs.

Base Interventions

3

Not Needed - Removed

The intent of the Base Interventions module was to group all commonly-used CDEs need for primarily intervention studies.  In one module CDEs for start date, stop date, dose, Unit of measure, dose, etc., were grouped.  Reviewers did not feel this was the best way to categorize the elements.  So the pertinent elements in the Base Interventions module were instead added to each intervention/agent module.  The Base Interventions module is retired, and not part of the final Standard CRF set.

Concomitant Medication

Final

Total of 13 CDEs built in one CRF standard module.

Demography

1

Final

Total of 15 CDEs built in one CRF standard module.

Diagnosis (Administrative)

Final

Total of 8 CDEs built in one CRF standard module.

Diagnosis (Intervention)

Final

Total of 6 CDEs built in one CRF standard module.
Diagnosis/Pathology5Under Review 

Drug Compliance

3

Not Needed - Removed

Review demonstrated that 5 of the 8 CDEs in this module are repeated in the Study Administration CRF module.  So the remaining 3 CDEs were merged with the Study Administration CRF standard module, and the Drug Compliance module removed as a separate CRF module.

Outcome Measures

3

Not Needed - Removed

The outcome module was created in round 2.  At the time of delivery the limitations in the content were recognized, and we had a plan to expand the content at some point and also look mainly at response results in nonsolid tumors, like the leukemias and lymphomas.  So round 5 was envisioned as expanding two main areas in round 2 – 1) responses had to be expanded beyond the solid tumors, and 2) survival had to be expanded.  Therefore, Outcomes in round 2 have now been replaced by content in round 5.

Protocol Deviations

2

Final

Total of 8 CDEs built in one CRF standard module. The use of a Protocol Deviation module is NOT recommended. Deviation data should be recorded in the appropriate form (agent administration, AE, etc.). However, if a sponsor mandates the use of an additional Protocol Deviation module, the identified variables should be used.

4

Final

Total of 4 CDEs built in one CRF standard module.

Staging/Extent of Disease

3

Final

Total of 21 separate CRF modules for major disease groups, including Leukemia, Lymphoma, and Solid tumors. There is no generic stage CRF module content. All CRF modules begin with ‘Staging’ and then have the specific diagnostic group. CDEs in these modules are largely but not exclusively based on AJCC edition 7.0 collaborative staging criteria.
