Project Scope 

The goals of this project is to obtain broad industry and CRO feedback on the current publicly available OCE/OOD standard safety data request (found at: https://www.fda.gov/media/133252/download) and assist with the development of resources to assist Sponsors with implementation of these data specifications.

There is tremendous variability and inconsistency in the use of the CDISC ADaM data standard in safety datasets for oncology NDA/BLA applications submitted to FDA. This variability leads to inefficiency in review for the FDA and multiple information requests to applicants during the course of the review to resolve inconsistencies in analyses between FDA and applicants. The Oncology Centre of Excellence (OCE)/Office of Oncologic Diseases (OOD) has developed a pilot standard safety data request for datasets submitted with NDA/BLA applications and instructions for conducting select safety analyses to create a common set of data elements with common use of these variables for safety analyses. The Stakeholders include FDA reviewers and analysts, industry, CROs, and software developers.
