NCOG-55. HARMONIZING LANGUAGE TO MAXIMIZE IMPACT: AN UPDATE ON COMMON DATA ELEMENTS FOR MENINGIOMA AND REVIEW OF CLINICAL TRIALS IN MENINGIOMA
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract BACKGROUND With increasing studies reporting on the molecular profiling of meningiomas, there is a need to harmonize language used to capture clinical data across centers to ensure that molecular alterations are appropriately linked to clinical variables of interest. Here the International Consortium on Meningiomas presents a final set of core and supplemental meningioma-specific Common Data Elements (CDEs) to facilitate comparative and pooled analyses. METHODS The generation of CDEs followed the four-phase process similar to other National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) CDE projects: development/discovery based on data from published and ongoing meningioma trials, internal validation, external validation including presentation of our data form at the Society for Neuro-Oncology previously, and distribution. RESULTS We developed a set of CDEs organized into patient- and tumor-level modules. In total, the Consortium identified 16 core CDEs (9 patient-level and 7-tumour-level) e.g. age at index surgery, diagnosis of neurofibromatosis, prior chemotherapy or radiation, tumor location, extent of resection, recurrence, etc. An additional 15 supplemental CDEs were defined and described (8 patient-level and 7 tumour-level) e.g. race, cause of death, multiple tumors, tumor size, Simpson grade, second intervention, etc. These CDES are now made publicly available for dissemination and adoption. We also present a narrative review and analysis of recent and ongoing meningioma trials. CONCLUSIONS These CDEs provide a framework for discussion in the neuro-oncology community that will facilitating data sharing for collaborative research projects and aid in developing a common language for comparative and pooled analyses. The CDEs are intended to be dynamic parameters that evolve with time and The Consortium welcomes international feedback for further refinement and implementation of these CDEs.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; the direct Gemma label and the distilled Codex classifier agree on what is shown here.
