Team Characteristics CDISC Controlled Terminology consists of multiple teams developing terminology for different areas to support Foundational Standards and Therapeutic Areas. Each sub-team of subject matter experts meets weekly while there is a need for new terminology. The number of active project team members is estimated at 50 – 60 at any one time depending on the number of active teams. |
NCI EVS NCI EVS colleagues participate on all teams. They have access to 75 + different vocabularies. NCI EVS provides starting definitions for all terms. |

Scope The CDISC Terminology Team supports the terminology needs of all CDISC foundational standards (SDTM, CDASH, ADaM, SEND) and all CFAST disease/therapeutic area standards. Based on the new/modified terms that need to be developed each team has about a 3-month development cycle. The teams evaluate the requests received, incorporating as much as possible for each quarterly release. Each quarter has a public review comment period followed by a publication release. All approved controlled terminology is stored on NCI EVS and can be accessed via the CDISC website. CDISC staff coordinate the teams and maintain the membership through careful selection of volunteer experts who can contribute to its various sub-teams with their technical or therapeutic-based subject matter expertise. Volunteers can contribute by contacting the leadership team or any team lead. The following terminology teams currently exist: LAB, PK, General, QRS, SEND, ECG, Oncology, Device, Virology, CV, and PGx. |
