  1. ODM-based Study Archival Jozef Aerts XML4Pharma

  2. History of the work • February 2008: TMF asks to write an expert opinion (“Gutachten”) on the use of ODM for study archival • June 2008: first draft • February 2009: final version

  3. Topics • Practical use of ODM for archival of clinical studies • Advantages / Disadvantages • Electronic Signatures

  4. Practical use of ODM for Archival • Many EDC vendors archive as ODM + CRFs as PDF • Only 1 extensive “experience report” CDISC Interchange Paris 2005: W.Kubick:“Case Study: Applying CDISC Standards to replace a Legacy CDMS” • What are the best practices ?

  5. Wayne's experiences • 200+ active studies • 3500+ legacy CDMS archives • Spanning 15 years • Options • Formatted ASCII files • SAS XPT • CDISC ODM

  6. Wayne's experiences • 13 months of planning, design, building and validating tools • Actual archival: • 8 months (planned: 12-18) • 5 staff (planned: 7) • Major issues • Metadata were missing • Audit trail reconstruction

  7. Study ArchivalAdvantages of CDISC ODM • Data + metadata • Full audit trail • 21 CFR 11 compliant • File linking: “chains” of files • Special features => vendor extensions

  8. Study ArchivalAdvantages of CDISC ODM • XML is very well searchable(XPath, XQuery) • Native (or mixed) XML databases

  9. Study ArchivalDisadvantages of CDISC ODM • File size • Same data in SAS XPT has half the size • When zipped: 30% difference • Compression factor: ~50 • Best practice: one file per subject • Visual presentation is lost • Use ODM “ArchiveLayout”

  10. ODM Archival Best Practices • 1 file per subject • File chaining using “FileOID” and “PreviousFileOID” • Metadata / ReferenceData in separate file or in each file • Vendor extensions • XML-Signature

  11. Alternative formatsSAS XPT • Legacy format • Many limitations • Very limited set of metadata • SAS software necessary • Audit trails !

  12. Alternative formatsPDF • Interesting for (e)CRFs • Metadata ? • Audit trails

  13. Electronic Signaturesand ODM • XML files (but also sections of them) can be signed using XML-Signature • Signature is XML itself and can reside within the XML file • Uses electronic certificates • New evolution: XAdES • Complies to European law • Extends XML-Signature

  14. XML-Signature for ODM
