2 Agenda Key Terminology Objectives Key Drivers Terminology Production and Development Future Plans 2

3 Terminology Objectives Primary Objectives Define and support the terminology needs of CDISC standards starting with SDTMIG Focus on standard terminology codelist development and publication

4 Guiding Principles (1) Adopt Adapt Develop Philosophy Evaluate and/or utilize existing terminology first Expand existing vocabularies where incomplete, working with vocabulary developer / owner Harmonize across CDISC Models and with preexisting vocabulary initiatives

5 Guiding Principles (2) Address international needs for global projects and organizations Ensure a sustainable open source environment and infrastructure for production terminology supporting terminology evolution

6 NCI EVS Partnership Dedicated terminology experts and resources CDISC controlled terminology development, harmonization, publication and maintenance Established terminology infrastructure and standard operating procedures CDISC terms are coded and tagged in NCI Thesaurus

7 CDISC-FDA-NCI EVS Terminology Harmonization NCI Thesaurus

9 Proposed Rule (key driver) Federal Register / Volume 71, No. 237 / Monday, December 11, 2006 The Food and Drug Administration is proposing to amend the regulations governing the format in which clinical study data and bioequivalence data are required to be submitted for new drug applications (NDAs), biological license applications (BLAs), and abbreviated new drug applications (ANDAs). The proposal would revise our regulations to require that data submitted for NDAs, BLAs, and ANDAs, and their supplements and amendments be provided in an electronic format that FDA can process, review, and archive. The proposal would also require the use of standardized data structure, terminology, and code sets contained in current FDA guidance (the Study Data Tabulation Model (SDTM) developed by the Clinical Data Interchange Standards Consortium) to allow for more efficient and comprehensive data review.

10 FDA PDUFA IV IT Plan excerpt For terminology standards, the FDA partners with the National Cancer Institute Enterprise Vocabulary Services (EVS). The NCI EVS hosts the FDA terminologies and makes them freely available to the public. NCI EVS supports FDA vocabulary initiatives Structured Product Label (SPL) Regulated Product Submission (RPS) Individual Case Safety Report (ICSR)

17 Harmonization Activities Continue terminology development for SDTMIG v3.1.2 (Microbiology, PK, SE, FA) Complete CDASH-SDTM terminology alignment (early Spring 2009) Support and harmonize terminology with other maturing CDISC standards (e.g., SEND, ADaM) Align terminology with BRIDG model and to support CDISC-HL7 message project(s)

18 Harmonization Activities other FDA Projects (e.g., ICSR, RPS) US HITSP Foundation Harmonization Subcommittee: (e.g., Marital Status, Gender, Body Site, Route of Administration) ISO Technical Committee 215 WG-6 Identification of Medicinal Products (e.g., Units of Measure) Joint Initiative Council (ISO, CDISC, CEN, HL7 and IHTSDO)
