The WHODrug B3 / C3 Formats and CDISC SDTM Requirements, a perfect match approved by regulators
  • Session Overview: In March 2017, The Uppsala Monitoring Centre introduced the WHODrug B3/C3 formats, not only to facilitate CDISC SDTM compliance, but also to improve the usability of the concomitant medication information collected in clinical trials for both WHODrug users and regulators.
Overview
In March 2017, The Uppsala Monitoring Centre introduced the WHODrug B3/C3 formats, not only to facilitate CDISC SDTM compliance, but also to improve the usability of the concomitant medication information collected in clinical trials for both WHODrug users and regulators. Shortly after, in October 2017, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) published a notice in the Federal Register, stating that the use of the B3-format of WHODrug Global will be required in submissions for studies starting after March 15, 2019. The U.S. FDA Data Standards Catalog has also been updated with this information.

Since March 1st 2017, the UMC has distributed the B2/C formats in parallel with the B3/C3 formats to facilitate smoother implementation for WHODrug users. This transition period now comes to an end on March 1st 2019, when the B3 format will finally replace the B2 format, and the C3 format will finally replace the C format.
