I goe this error message when i tried to validate ADaM datasets:

ID:              AD0053   

Message:    USUBJID value does not exist in the SDTM DM domain     

Description: Unique subject identifier not found in the SDTM Demographics domain. There must be traceability between ADaM and SDTM.

 

For the above error messsage, why it is generated? Or more general, how OpenCDISC check the traceability between ADaM and SDTM datasets?

Hi Yan, 

Algorithm for AD0053 check includes STUDYID in addition to USUBJID. So a current issue message may be confusing and should be changed to "STUDYID / USUBJID value does not exist in the SDTM DM domain"

I assume that your analysis data is not limited to one study. Sometimes a study Open Label Extension (OL) is done under a different Protocol in addition to the first study part like Double Blind (DB). So, tabulation data for actually the same study is submitted into different folders and considered as formally different studies.

Implementation of Analysis data of such studies is quite challenging because there is no perfect solution in terms of current standards, regulations and a company internal practice. In most cases Sponsors combine two formally different studies as a source of Analysis data for the same subjects. eCTD structure has a special folders for integrated data. However, this case of combining just DB and OL phases is not ISS/ISE data for an application. 

The simplest solution would be to keep DB and OL parts of the study under the same Protocol.

Kind Regards,

Thanks Sergiy.

I am curious about how Pinnacle 21 checks the traceability between ADaM and SDTM.

The message appeared when I checked my ADaM dataset. I only provided my ADaM dataset as the "Source Data".

How does Pinnacle 21 know where to find the SDTM datasets? In the same folder of my ADaM dataset?

 

Kind regards,

Yan

Hi Yan, 

You need to add AE, DM and EX domains when validating ADaM data.

eCTD structure with pre-defined location of analysis and tabulation data utilized by FDA and PMDA allows automation.

Thanks Sergiy.

So if SDTM data and ADaM data are in the predefined location of eCTD structure, and you check ADaM data with Pinnacle 21, Pinnacle 21 will automatically find the locatins of AE, DM and EX and check the treaceability between ADaM datasets and SDTM AE, DM and EX datasets?

Kind regards,

Yan

Hi Yan, 

FDA and PMDA automated a data validation process using eCTD structure and metadata available in define.xml files.

A part of this automation is an including AE, DM and EX domains for validation ADaM data. 

As a user of P21 Validator outside of FDA and PMDA you need to add AE, DM and EX domains manually.

Kind Regards, 

Sergiy
