  • Humane: the point at which pain and/or distress is terminated, minimized, or reduced.
  • Surrogate: a measure of effect of a specific treatment that may correlate with a real clinical endpoint but does not necessarily have a guaranteed relationship (e.g., a biomarker).
  • Combined: end point that is a combination of several measures. Example: A heart attack study may report the incidence of the combined endpoint of chest pain, myocardial infarction, or death.


Level(Primary | Secondary | Exploratory)Optional 

Level for the Study Endpoint.

  • Primary endpoint(s) are typically efficacy measures that address the main research question [1]
  • Secondary endpoints are generally not sufficient to influence decision-making alone, but may support the claim of efficacy by demonstrating additional effects or by supporting a causal mechanism. [2] 
  • Exploratory endpoints (where nominated) typically capture outcomes that occur less frequently or which may be useful for exploring novel hypotheses. [1]
  • These are defined in concordance with the ICH M11 Clinical electronic Structured Harmonised Protocol Specification
