The following example illustrates stability study results for an ENDS tobacco product. Stability study results are represented in the Tobacco Product Testing (PT) domain, with PTCAT = STABILITY STUDYTESTING.

Info

The first pt.xpt dataset shows 22 constituents consituents and parameters each as a single replicate (PTREPNUM=1), at one 1 time point (PTTPT=Week 0 / PTTPTNUM=1) and from one 1 set of storage conditions (STOCONID= Condition 1) in order to illustrate the variables and terminology required to construct an SDTM-conformant PT dataset for a stability study. Some constituent names (Values values of PTTESTCD/PTTEST) appear multiple times twice because they are tested separately in both e-liquid and aerosol (as indicated by PTSPEC). Note that the constituent names shown do not represent an exhaustive list of the controlled terminology that will be developed to support representation of stability studies in SDTM.

Note
  • The use of SPDEVID and PTREFID in this example on records where PTSPEC=AEROSOL indicates that a smoking machine (shown in SPDEVID) was used to perform a smoking the vaping regimen (shown in PTREFID) to produce the aerosol from the e-liquid product on records where PTSPEC=AEROSOL. Details of the smoking machine and smoking vaping regimen are not shown herein this example. For examples illustrating how to represent these concepts in SDTM, see Section 3.1.3.1, Harmful and Potentially Harmful Constituents (HPHCs) and Smoking Regimens2, HPHCs, Other Constituents, and Smoking / Vaping Regimens.
  • PTXFN (External File Path) is used to document the location or file name within the submission that contains the lab methodology protocol used to assay the associated constituent when such methodology is too complex for the single PTMETHOD variable.
  • STOCONID is used to identify the storage conditions of the e-liquid product for the testing performed. Details of these conditions are represented in the Environmental Storage Conditions (ES) dataset example that follows the two 2 PT dataset examples. 
  • In this example, the applicant chose to subcategorize some consituents and parameters using the permissible variable PTSCAT (Sub-Category of Test).

A Shelf Life study dataset would shows analytes done in different test conditions with replicates over time points.  In the interest of brevity for this example, only portions of the content using the TEST of Nicotine is shown in a sample of timepoints in two conditions with replicates. The weeks reflective of Week 1,  Week 2, Week 3, etc. which would align with the PTTPTNUM of 2,3, etc. are not shown for visual viewing purposes. This is an example, this provides possible tests that might be used to demonstrate how to use the datasets and variables to show what was done for the shelf-life stability study. It shows what timepoint and what type of data follows. It is important to show different test conditions for each analyte. For aerosol a machine similutaion is use so mg/puff is valid.

Info

The second PT dataset shows testing for just 1 constituent (nicotine), performed in 3 replicates (note the values of PTREPNUM), at the first 3 time points of the study (as shown in PTTPT/PTTPTNUM), from 3 sets of storage conditions (STOCONID), in samples of e-liquid and aerosol (PTSPEC) in order to illustrate how those variables are used to represent their associated concepts in a stability study. 

Note
  • As in the first PT dataset, the details of the smoking machine and vaping regimen are not shown in this example. For examples illustrating how to represent these concepts in SDTM, see Section 3.1.3.2, HPHCs, Other Constituents, and Smoking/Vaping Regimens.
  • Details of the 3 conditions are represented in the ES dataset example that follows.

Details of the storage conditions are represented in the Environmental Storage Conditions ( ES ) dataset. The variable STOCONID/Storage Condition ID represents the storage condition and links to the PT datasets above by matching values of STOCONID there. Each of the parameters defining that storage condition are represented in ESPARMCD/ESPARM, with values and units shown in ESVAL/ESVALU. The ES dataset shows all 3 sets of storage conditions used across both of the PT dataset examples.
