The CIOMS Cumulative Glossary is an organized collection of the terms and definitions included in published CIOMS Working Group reports, with a focus on pharmacovigilance. It includes links to the reports and, where applicable, provides references to the sources from which the definitions were adopted or modified.

Version 2.1 covers the terms included in thirteen different CIOMS reports published between 1992 and 2022. It does not cover CIOMS reports on the subjects of ethics, clinical pharmacology, the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA®), or publications resulting from CIOMS Roundtable Discussions (1967-1997).

CIOMS welcomes all feedback. Please e-mail your recommendations to info@cioms.ch.
