TLDR
A flexible method of extending a study based on conditional power, where the significance of the treatment difference at the planned end is used to determine the number of additional observations needed and the critical value necessary after accruing those additional observations.

Sample size reassessment for a two-stage design controlling the false discovery rate.

TL;DR: A two-stage design with an adaptive interim analysis where quantities are estimated from the interim data is proposed to achieve a specific overall power in gene expression microarray and NGS-RNA-Seq experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of “learn-as-you-go” (LAGO) studies

TL;DR: In this article, the authors formalize standard practice in public health intervention studies and develop an estimator for the intervention effects, and prove consistency and asymptotic normality using a novel coupling argument, ensuring the validity of the test for the hypothesis of no overall intervention effect.
Journal ArticleDOI

A group sequential test for ABR detection

TL;DR: The Convolutional Group Sequential Test can be used to control the specificity of a sequentially applied ABR detection method and can reduce test time, relative to the “single shot” test, when considered across a cohort of test subjects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Longitudinal clinical trials with adaptive choice of follow-up time.

TL;DR: In longitudinal studies comparing two treatments with a maximum follow-up time there may be interest in examining treatment effects for intermediate follow- up times, and several adaptive alternatives to this approach that treat the pilot and second trial as a seamless, combined entity are considered.
Dissertation

Some statistical problems in sequential meta-analysis

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed the use of a truncated CUSUM-type test (Gombay/) for sequential monitoring in REM, and also examined the effect of accumulating evidence in meta-analysis.

Modification of Sample Size in Group Sequential Clinical Trials

TL;DR: A new group sequential test procedure is developed by modifying the weights used in the traditional repeated significance two-sample mean test, which has the type I error probability preserved at the target level and can provide a substantial gain in power with the increase of sample size.

Adaptive design methods in clinical trials – a review

TL;DR: Several commonly considered adaptive designs in clinical trials are reviewed and some examples concerning the development of Velcade intended for multiple myeloma and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma are given.

Adaptive Designs in Clinical Drug Development—An Executive Summary of the PhRMA Working Group

TL;DR: Three particular areas where it is felt that adaptive designs can be utilized beneficially are discussed: dose finding, seamless Phase II/III trials designs, and sample size reestimation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adaptive increase in sample size when interim results are promising: a practical guide with examples.

TL;DR: The benefits and limitations of adaptive sample size re-estimation for phase 3 confirmatory clinical trials are discussed and those promising circumstances in which a conventional final inference can be performed while preserving the overall type-1 error are defined.
