myCSG © |Area: SDTM| Concept: TA : Trial Arms | Lesson: LCSG801 : TA domain for an example study CSG801 - parallel, 3 arms |

 

Background

  • The entire duration of expected participation in a clinical trial can be split into several distinct periods of time
  • These distinct periods of time are called 'elements'
  • An element may involve 'treatment' or 'no treatment'
    • 'Treatment' elements involve treating the subjects with one of the study drugs - investigational drug or matching control - active control or placebo
    • 'No treatment' elements include
      • preparing a subject for treatment - screening
      • washing out of any prior treatments - washout
      • observation period post treatment - follow-up
  • SDTM standard has a dataset named 'Trial Elements', which is used to describe all the possible 'elements' within a study
  • A subject's journey in the trial can be described as a combination of these elements
  • SDTM describes 'Arm' as the planned path through the trial
  • SDTM standard has a dataset named 'Trial Arms' to describe the sequence of elements for each arm
  • The expected record structure for TA domain is 'One record per planned Element per Arm'

What type of information is typically collected or presented?

  • Study identifier
  • Domain name
  • Planned Arm Code
  • Description of Planned Arm
  • Planned order of element within arm
  • Element code
  • Description of the element
  • Branching rule
  • Transition rule where applicable
  • Epoch
 

Study design schema

  • 4 weeks of screening
  • 12 weeks of treatment
    • CSG801 300 mg every two weeks
    • CSG801 600 mg every two weeks
    • Placebo every two weeks
  • 3 Weeks of follow-up

General General notes There will be no formal specification for Trial design domains.
We need to create it based on the protocol.
