Adaptive sample size calculations in group sequential trials.
Walter Lehmacher,Gernot Wassmer +1 more
TL;DR: A method for group sequential trials that is based on the inverse normal method for combining the results of the separate stages is proposed, which enables data-driven sample size reassessments during the course of the study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of preoperative statin therapy on adverse postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing cardiac surgery: a meta-analysis of over 30 000 patients
Oliver J. Liakopoulos,Yeong-Hoon Choi,Peter L. Haldenwang,Justus T. Strauch,Thorsten Wittwer,Hilmar Dörge,Christof Stamm,Gernot Wassmer,Thorsten Wahlers +8 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that preoperative statin therapy exerts substantial clinical benefit on early postoperative adverse outcomes in cardiac surgery patients, but underscores the need for RCT trials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comments on the draft guidance on “Adaptive design clinical trials for drugs and biologics” of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
Werner Brannath,Hans Ulrich Burger,Ekkehard Glimm,Nigel Stallard,Marc Vandemeulebroecke,Gernot Wassmer +5 more
TL;DR: This comment summarizes the discussion within the joint working group “Adaptive Designs and Multiple Testing Procedures” of the Austro-Swiss and German regions of the International Biometric Society held at the 90-day public comment period in spring 2010.
Journal ArticleDOI
Procedures for two-sample comparisons with multiple endpoints controlling the experimentwise error rate.
TL;DR: It is shown here that all tests are suitable for the construction of a closed multiple test procedure where, after the rejection of the global hypothesis, all lower-dimensional marginal hypotheses and finally the single hypotheses are tested step by step.
Journal ArticleDOI
Twenty-five years of confirmatory adaptive designs: opportunities and pitfalls
TL;DR: A historical overview of the early days, review the key methodological concepts and summarize regulatory and industry perspectives on such designs are provided, and the application of adaptive designs is illustrated with three case studies.
