Implementing Adaptive Trials: Operational Considerations, new webinar hosted by Xtalks
Toronto, Canada (PRWEB) May 16, 2014 -- In this webinar esteemed speakers Marc Buyse, Founder of IDDI, and Linda Danielson, Chief Operating Officer for IDDI, will discuss today’s operational challenges in adaptive trials:
The needs:
- to validate the design through simulations,
- to control the trial centrally,
- to collect and analyze key data rapidly,
- to preserve the trial blinding and integrity,
- and to document all important adaptive decisions taken.
These challenges will be illustrated using an actual phase I trial in oncology, and the speakers will argue that the issues can be addressed through:
- proper planning,
- choice of experienced vendors and independent groups (coordinating center and DSMB),
- statistical teams with adequate expertise and experience with the design chosen,
- recourse to efficient computer technology (IWRS, EDC, automated emailing),
- and oversight by a specialized team.
Finally, issues specific to the design of pivotal trials for registration will be addressed. A Q&A with the audience will follow the main presentation.
