Overview

The SAS Clinical Standards Toolkit provides the following support for the CDISC ADaM 2.1 standard:
  • A metadata representation of the CDISC ADaM standard in a set of SAS data sets.
  • The ability to derive template (zero-observation) data sets for the ADaM subject-level Analysis (ADSL) data set, a representative Basic Data Structure (BDS) data set, and an ADaM Adverse Event (ADAE) data set.
    Note: Templates for additional ADaM data structures will be provided in future releases after the CDISC ADaM team approves them for use.
  • Implementation of version 1.2 CDISC ADaM validation checks as prepared by the CDISC ADaM team.
    In addition, SAS has provided validation checks for the ADAE and ADaM Time-to-Event (ADTTE) domains. These validation checks are derived from individual implementation guides provided by CDISC. For the ADAE domain, the release of the implementation guide is Analysis Data Model (ADaM) Data Structure for Adverse Event Analysis, Version 1.0. For the ADTTE domain, the release of the implementation guide is ADaM Basic Data Structure for Time-to-Event Analyses, Version 1.0.
  • A sample reporting methodology that combines the analysis results metadata with a sample set of tables, listings, and figures (TLF) metadata to create example clinical study reports.
