Re: [etmf-comment] eTMF Vocabulary & NCI

Hi Eldin,

Can you provide some details on the above especially with regards to any submission from the TC to NCI? Also, notes on where Carelex rather than OASIS is cited?

Just to be clear, the eTMF working draft has not yet been published as a Committee Specification Draft nor released for public review. So the standing of the material produced by the Technical Committee, save for the working draft they approved as the CSD that I am working on right now, is still just working draft stage.

Thanks for any pointers to help me delve deeper.

Best,

Would OASIS please explain:

(1) why DRAFT TMF vocabulary has been submitted to NCI for adoption into the NCI Thesaurus BEFORE the vocabulary has completed its formal review and approval process. The acceptance and publishing of these terms by NCI gives the impression that these are final terms, making the 45-day public review process redundant;

(2) why CareLex is acknowledged by NCI as the source of these terms rather than OASIS;

(3) why CareLex is identified on the OASIS vocabulary spreadsheet rather than OASIS.

It appears that this is a CareLex taxonomy that has been submitted to NCI and released for public review rather than a draft OASIS vocabulary.
