Our validated tool makes it easy to code Adverse Events and Medical History directly within secuTrial® databases using MedDRA. Instead of searching terms in the MSSO Web-Based Browser and manually copying them into the system, coding can now be performed directly in secuTrial®. This saves time, reduces manual errors, and ensures that all clinical trial data is stored in one place. The tool is freely available across the SCTO CTU network—supporting more efficient, interoperable, and reliable clinical research. If you would like MedDRA coding to be integrated into your database, please contact your CTU Data Managers for support.

shinytemplate is a ready-to-use Shiny app template designed for clinical trials and research. Intermediate R users can customize the app by enabling or disabling modules and replacing example data with their own. Built as an R package, it offers a well-organized framework for easy development, maintenance, and sharing. The app includes modules for recruitment, retention, data quality, study management, and safety monitoring—providing clear visual tools like plots, maps, flow charts, and reports to track study progress and data quality. Contact your CTU data managers for more details.
