Standards?

What do we think first about Standards?

Standards driven electronic submission of clinical trial data

Current Status in eSubmission in CDER FDA

In 2010, 23% of SDTM in NDA

In 2011, 39% of SDTM and 32% in ADaM in NDA

In 2013, 55% of SDTM in NDA

• Enhanced by Food and Drug Administration Safety and Innovation Act (FDASIA) on July 9, 2012.

• Requires that submissions be submitted in electronic format.

Examples of Metadata Management• Creating new standards (e.g., variables and domains)• Modifying the attributes (e.g., label, type) of current

standards• Adding the new attributes to current standards• Archiving the standards• Managing the information that transforms data into a

new structure (e.g.: CDASH to SDTM)• Leveraging the Schedule of Events table to determine

the data domains required for a study• Assigning versions (e.g., major or minor) to standards

after changes• Maintaining multiple versions of standards (e.g.,

SDTMIG 3.1.2, 3.1.3)

• Database created to store metadata• Function

• Storages of Standards metadata in global library• Manage Standards metadata• Govern Standards metadata• Develop study-level metadata from global library• Feed metadata to other system(e.g., EDC and
