    Abstract:
    German children suffering from cancer are mostly treated within the framework of multicentre clinical trials. An important task of conducting these trials is an extensive information and knowledge exchange, which has to be based on a standardised documentation. To support this effort, it is the aim of a nationwide project to define a standardised terminology that should be used by clinical trials for therapy documentation. In order to support terminology maintenance we are currently developing a data dictionary. In this paper we describe requirements and design aspects of the data model used for the data dictionary as first results of our research. We compare it with other terminology systems.
