What are they?
Why is it so important?
Consistency of source documentation for specific data points
- Progress Records
- Vital Sign Worksheets
- MRI/CT Scan/PET scan reports
- Pathology Reports
- Drug Infusion Sheets
Fundamentals
- Organization!! colored labels, highlighting data points, chronological order, sections,
Principle Investigator over site, meeting regularly with PI for chart review and signature of agreement of data confirmation.
Inclusion / Exclusion Criteria
Ensure that all source documentation is current and imaging, assessments and labs all fall within the proper study time windows.
If the participant does not meet all inclusion/exclusion criteria, you will have to seek a waiver from the IRB or Compassionate
Use request from the FDA.
Show all calculations if required.

Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors
(RECIST) is a set of published rules that define when tumors in cancer patients improve
("respond"), stay the same ("stabilize"), or worsen ("progress") during treatment.
Patient is added to system once registered in JeffTrial
Request all RECIST readings as soon as possible (may take up to 2 weeks)

The Data and Safety Monitoring Plan (DSMP) of
Thomas Jefferson University’s Sidney Kimmel
Cancer Center (SKCC) provides for the oversight and monitoring of ongoing clinical trials to ensure the safety of participants and the validity and integrity of the data of these trials.
The DSMP shall also ensure the appropriate termination of studies for which significant benefits or risks have been identified or if it has been discovered that the trial cannot be concluded successfully.
The DSMP requires that every Sidney Kimmel
Cancer Center protocol include a data and safety monitoring plan.
Data and Safety Monitoring Committee (DSMC) is the Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) for the SKCC. The DSMC is a multidisciplinary committee charged with overseeing the monitoring of safety of participants in clinical trials, and the conduct, progress, validity, and integrity of the data for all clinical trials at the
Thomas Jefferson University SKCC.
The committee meets quarterly to review the progress and safety of all active research protocols that are not monitored by another data and safety monitoring committee or board.
