CDISC

As CDISC authorized trainers in SDTM and ADaM, we provide expertise about requirements, processes, systems, as well as consultants experienced in implementing these standards.

With our extensive experience, S-cubed can ensure that you submit the right data in the right format. Just get in touch if you need help or advice.

We have advised several major pharmaceutical companies all the way from first steps of implementing CDISC through to full implementation. S-cubed’s consultants have converted over 100 studies to CDISC standards and supported more than 20 successful FDA submissions. Having worked with CDISC standards since 2004, we are very familiar with issues that typically arise and have unique insight about what works well.

The FDA (USA) and the PMDA (Japan) both require CDISC standards as part of their data submissions. In Japan the submission of standardised e-study data will be mandatory from 1st April 2020. The FDA requires standardised e-study data for all studies which started after 17th December 2017. The standards included in a submission are not limited to SDTM (Study Data Tabulation Model) but also include, SEND, ADaM (Analysis Data Model) and Define.xml (depending on where you are submitting your data). The European Medicines Agency and the China FDA also endorse standardising clinical trial data in CDISC format.

In 2017, we formed our partner company A3 Informatics to develop new products to support the way standards are implemented. We were pleased to announce that S-cubed and A3 Informatics merged in 2019 and the A3 Suite (formerly known as the Glandon Suite) is now an S-cubed product. The A3 Suite is a set of tools designed to solve real world challenges in a non-disruptive and iterative manner to suit different working environments. Our CDISC team are working closely with the tools to ensure that clients are able to leverage the CDISC standards to deliver high quality data throughout the clinical research process. You can learn more about the A3 Suite here.

We are CDISC Authorised Trainers in SDTM and ADaM.
