Knowledge Base

Welcome to the CDISC Knowledge Base!

The Knowledge Base is an evolving collection of resources curated by CDISC to support implementers of our standards.  Resources include:

  • Articles – Search and find useful information specific to your area of interest.
  • Examples Collection – A set of CDISC-curated examples culled from our Foundational Standards and Therapeutic Area User Guide (TAUGs), the Examples Collection provides annotated CRFs and metadata table examples of common clinical concepts.
  • Known Issues – A known issue is a problem or concern with a CDISC standard that CDISC is aware of, and may be working actively to mitigate or resolve. Unlike errors or errors that affect conformance, known issues have no obvious solution when they are first identified; and some known issues may prove to be irresolvable.
  • eCRF Portal – Download CDASH-compliant, annotated case report forms in various formats (PDF, HTML and XML). Use the eCRFs as is or import them to an EDC system for customization.
  • eTFL Portal – Download system agnostic ARS-compliant packages. Each package is based on an analysis concept and includes an example display, ADaM Dataset and Metadata, Analysis Results Metadata, and an Analysis Results Dataset.

You can easily access these resources via the dashboard on the left side of your browser or quickly locate content by using the search and filtering options. Knowledge Base content is tagged (e.g., by standard, audience and proficiency) to allow greater searchability

We invite you to visit the Knowledge Base frequently as content is updated regularly. You can find “Recent Updates” and “Most Popular” listings at the bottom of the page.

By accessing or using the Knowledge Base, you are agreeing to its Terms of Use. The Knowledge Base, including the materials, is provided “as is", and CDISC assumes no responsibility for your use.
