*Required fields marked in red, bold font, required for all unless Oncology specifically called out

Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE):

•  Set of criteria for the standardized classification of adverse effects of drugs used in cancer therapy.
• Each oncology protocol should specify which version of the CTCAE should be utilized.
• The CTCAE version can be updated/changed in the management tab of the PC console by the regulatory coordinator as long as no SAEs have been documented.
