NCI Patient Reported Outcomes (PRO)-Common Terminology for Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE)
Description
PRO-CTCAE (NCI Patient Reported Outcomes version of the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events) was developed to evaluate symptomatic toxicities by self-report in adults, adolescents and children participating in cancer clinical trials. It is designed to be utilized in comparison to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), the standard lexicon for adverse event reporting in cancer trials. |

NCI PRO-CTCAE
I agree with UCSF's submission of this data element as patient reported outcomes are increasingly integral to cancer planning due to the enhanced patient role in determining treatment options.
