A Two-Stage Adaptive Design in Phase 2 Clinical Trials for Acute Treatment of Migraine

TL;DR: An adaptive two-stage dose-finding design is introduced that combines traditional phase 2a and 2b to serve the dual purpose of proof of concept and dose finding through the use of an unblinded interim analysis that provides an opportunity for adaptation.

Optimal Design and Adaptive Design in Stereology

Wei Zhang
TL;DR: This dissertation focuses on studies that examine the number of neurons in a brain region of interest using stereological techniques in order to compare subjects in different diagnostic groups, e.

A Multistage Non?inferiority Study Analysis Plan to Evaluate Successively More Stringent Criteria for a Clinical Trial with Rare Events

TL;DR: Li et al. as discussed by the authors presented a multistage clinical trial to assess a sequence of hypotheses in the noninferiority and also rare events setting, and three successive hypotheses are used to evaluate whether the new treatment meets the criteria for new drug approval.

Examination of novel statistical designs for phase II and phase III clinical trials

TL;DR: This book discusses the history and present situation of black-and-white photographs, as well as some of the approaches and methods used to evaluate their rarity and quality.

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.

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.
