Oncology Trial Data
What's special about oncology trials — RECIST tumor assessments, response categories, progression, CTCAE grading, survival endpoints, data cuts and imaging core labs.
Why oncology is different
Slide 1 / 5Oncology is the largest therapeutic area in clinical research and has complex data: • repeated tumor assessments with imaging, • complex dosing (cycles, dose modifications), • heavy AE burden graded with CTCAE, • time-to-event endpoints (progression-free survival, overall survival), • long follow-up and multiple data cuts.
