titleCreating Your Own "Report"

You don't necessarily need to run a report in OnCore to get the information you need. Many times, the answer you are looking for can be found with your own Protocol or Subject Search. By utilizing the various categories and fields available to narrow your searches, you can get a "report" of the exact information you are looking for. This is a good option to try when there is a report in OnCore that doesn't exactly fit your needs. Look at what fields and information the report provides and see if you can replicate it with the protocol search, and then add in what is missing for your particular question. Additionally, if no such report already exists in OnCore, a Protocol or Subject Search provides an alternative to having a custom report created.

 

Protocol Search

From the Menu, navigate to Protocols > Protocol Search.

...

  1. Subject Demographics: this section is useful for identifying specific subjects or groups of subjects based on demographic information.
  2. Subject Status:
    1. Status: subjects with the selected status at any point during the specified date range.
    2. Status Change To: subjects whose status was changed to the selected status at any point during the specified date range.
  3. Consent and Eligibility: search for subjects who signed consent or met specific eligibility statuses during certain date ranges
  4. On Study: search for subject based on any of the information entered in the On Study tab, including sequence number, study site, disease sites, staff, and many other options
    1. Be aware that subjects will not result in the search unless the CRC has entered this date into the subject's On Study tab. The more data that you put into the system, the more data you can get out of it.
  5. Protocol: The fields in this section refer to data stored in various PC Console > Main tabs. Subjects associated with the protocols that meet the specified criteria are matched.
  6. Follow Up: search for subjects based on various Off Treatment, Off Study, or On Follow Up data.

Protocol Search

From the Menu, navigate to Protocols > Protocol Search.

...

For example: Under Age Group, you may wish to filter your search to Adult age groups only, but since all your resulting protocols will be for Adult age groups, you do not need to include this column in your results. Alternatively, you may wish to check the box to include the protocol title in your results, even though you are not narrowing your search by title.

 

 

...

You can create a protocol search based on various criteria related to the protocol:

  1. The search criteria directly corresponds to the information present in the different vertical tabs within the PC Console
  2. You can tailor your search by inputting any parameters you wish to use to narrow down your results.  The parameters fall within these available categories:
    1. Protocol Status Search
      1. If you search by Protocol Status, you must include a date range for your search
      2. Pay attention to the "Filter Type" option so you can search multiple things at once
        1. Filter Types:
          1. Contains Any
          2. Contains All
          3. Does Not Contain
      3. Pending Studies include:
        1. New
        2. PRMC Approval
        3. IRB Initial Approval
        4. On Hold
        5. Any Signoffs still need to be completed (CRC signoff, Regulatory signoff)
      4. Active Studies include:
        1. Open to Accrual
        2. Suspended
        3. Closed to Accrual
      5. Completed Studies include:
        1. Abandoned
        2. Terminated
        3. IRB Closure
      6. Example: If you only want to search for Open to Accrual studies, click the "Active" check box and put the following into "Status": Suspended, Closed to Accrual and click on "Dose Not Contain" below the status search bar. Include your date range and click "Search"
    2. Participating Institution Search
      1. You can search for protocols based which institutions are participating in the study
    3. Staff
      1. You can search for protocols that have a certain staff member listed as staff
      2. You can even specify at which level (Protocol or Subject) the staff member should be listed
    4. Main
      1. These fields correspond to the information provided on the main page of the PC Console. Things like the Phase of the study, whether it is a Multi-Site Trial, what the Scope is, and what the Age Group is can be filtered
    5. Management
      1. The fields under Management can help you search for protocols based on which departments, study teams, or sponsors are associated with them
    6. Treatment
      1. You can use this to search for protocols with specific drugs, devices, or modalities connected with its treatment
    7. Protocol Annotations
      1. This page has been set up within the PC console to identify certain parameters of Oncology protocols operating at Washington University. These parameters include Authorized Study Sites, Protocol Types, and Accrual Information
    8. Accrual
      1. Based on the other parameters you set for your protocol search, you can include results for various Accrual Goals related to the protocols that are defined by your search
    9. LTFU
      1. You can search for protocols that are strictly Long Term Follow Up protocols
  3. If you are an individual who frequently utilizes the Protocol Search function and have Saved Searches you think might be helpful to others, please let the OnCore Support Team know!
