ClinicalTrials.gov "Basic Results" Data Element Definitions
(DRAFT)
November 2011

The "basic results" data element definitions and requirements currently included in ClinicalTrials.gov represent the
National Institutes of Health's (NIH's) current thinking on this topic, and were developed in response to the
provision contained within FDAAA that required the Agency to develop a "basic results" databank within one year
of enactment. They do not create or confer any rights for or on any person and do not operate to bind NIH, the
Department of Health and Human Services or the public. NIH will interpret these "basic results" reporting
requirements in regulations or guidance to be issued at a later date. Prior to the issuance of draft regulations or
guidance for comment, comments on the existing ClinicalTrials.gov "basic results" data element definitions and
requirements are welcome and will be considered by the Agency in drafting a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking.
Comments should be addressed to [email protected]. Please include "Comments on ClinicalTrials.gov
Results Requirements" in the subject line.

the sponsor or its agent and the principal investigators (unless the sponsor is an employer of the
principal investigators) that restricts in any manner the ability of the principal investigators (PIs),
after the completion of the trial, to discuss the results of the trial at a scientific meeting or any
other public or private forum, or to publish in a scientific or academic journal information
concerning the results of the trial. This does not include an agreement solely to comply with
applicable provisions of law protecting the privacy of participants.

sponsor, select "Yes" and skip the remaining questions. If any principal investigator (PI) is not
an employee of the sponsor, select "No" and answer the remaining questions.

sponsor (or its agent) and any non-employee PI(s) that restricts the PI's rights to discuss or
publish trial results after the trial is completed, select "Yes" and select a "Restriction Type." Trial
completion is defined as the final date on which data were collected. (ie, the Study Completion

with PIs, choose the type below that represents the most restrictive of the agreements (e.g., the

The only disclosure restriction on the PI is that the sponsor can review results
communications prior to public release and can embargo communications regarding trial
results for a period that is less than or equal to 60 days from the time submitted to the
sponsor for review. The sponsor cannot require changes to the communication and cannot
extend the embargo.
The only disclosure restriction on the PI is that the sponsor can review results
communications prior to public release and can embargo communications regarding trial
results for a period that is more than 60 days but less than or equal to 180 days from
the time submitted to the sponsor for review. The sponsor cannot require changes to the
communication and cannot extend the embargo.
Other disclosure agreement that restricts the right of the PI to discuss or publish trial
results after the trial is completed

Other Disclosure Restriction Type : If "Other disclosure agreement..." is selected, please
describe the type of agreement including any provisions allowing the sponsor to require changes,

1. Serious Adverse Events include adverse events that result in death, require either
inpatient hospitalization or the prolongation of hospitalization, are life-threatening, result
in a persistent or significant disability/incapacity or result in a congenital anomaly/birth
defect. Other important medical events, based upon appropriate medical judgment, may
also be considered Serious Adverse Events if a trial participant's health is at risk and
intervention is required to prevent an outcome mentioned.

Events that exceed a frequency threshold.
