The Study Data Tabulation Model (SDTM) is a specification for structuring pre-clinical and clinical data to support interoperable and reusable data sharing, including submissions to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Japan’s Pharmaceutical and Medical Devices Agency (PMDA) in support of marketing applications.
This course consists of:
• A detailed review of SDTM concepts, SDTM-based domain models for human clinical data, relationship tables, and trial design
• A discussion of common implementation issues
• Exercises including the annotation of CRFs and the creation of datasets that reinforce attendees' understanding of the SDTM and the SDTM Implementation Guide for clinical data
This course roughly covers information in standards documentation as of SDTMv1.7 & SDTMIG v3.3. If there is a disparity of information, please ask the instructor during the training.
Learning Outcomes
At the end of this course, learners will be able to:
Describe the SDTM model and implementation guide and the relationships between them.
Model timing variables correctly for relative, actual, planned and time point data
Identify Findings About candidate data and model them correctly
Construct accurate relationship datasets for non-standard variables and linkages across datasets
