Table 1 identifies some key domains that could contribute to a core minimal dataset that informs clinical trial design for each priority pathogen. While these data have their most important benefits in improving patient management (through better recognition of disease complications and informing supportive care) and public health control, patient-based data are also used to determine key parameters for clinical trials, such as the inclusion criteria, the nature and rate of clinically relevant outcomes, and potential confounders.
