You can edit or add most trial-related scientific information except codes and other identifiers that the system generates, such as the NCI Trial Identifier. Scientific information for trials comprises the following:
- Trial descriptions
- Trial design, including design details, outcome measures, and eligibility criteria
- Diseases and conditions
- Data Table 4 anatomic sites
- Biomarkers (Markers)
- Interventions
- Arms for Interventional trials
- Groups and cohorts for Non-interventional trials
- Sub-groups
After a trial has been accepted, if you log in with an appropriate role, the Scientific Data menu contains an option for each of the above categories.
The trial summary remains displayed at the top of each page as you navigate through the Scientific Data section.
When you have completed abstracting all trial information on a given page, be sure to click the Save button at the bottom of each page before you proceed to another task.
Check out the trial before you begin abstraction
Before you begin abstracting or validating any trial, be sure you check it out first. Otherwise you will not be able to modify any trial data.
