- The
https://github.com/ClinicalTrialOntology/CTOGitHub repository is for the CTO: Core Ontology of Clinical Trials. This is a collaborative project undertaken by various groups including the Fraunhofer SCAI group, the University of Michigan, NIH PubChem, and NIH/NHGRI. The goal is to develop an ontology to represent clinical trials using a small set of core terms. - The CTO-core uses Basic Formal Ontology (BFO) as its top-level ontology. Other OBO foundry ontologies and the OPMI led by the University of Michigan serve as the pool of existing terms to import into the CTO core. The selected terms were primarily based on the WHO/ICMJE – ClinicalTrials.gov Cross Reference selected from ClinicalTrials.gov and WHO clinical trial terms.
- In terms of development, the repository contains OntoFox input files that are manually created and OntoFox output files that are automatically generated1.
