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.About:

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.

Modification of Sample Size in Group Sequential Clinical Trials
Lu Cui,H. M. J. Hung,S.-J. Wang +2 more
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
Shein-Chung Chow,Mark Chang +1 more
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 Group Sequential Designs for Clinical Trials: Combining the Advantages of Adaptive and of Classical Group Sequential Approaches
Hans-Helge Müller,Helmut Schäfer +1 more
TL;DR: A general method is presented integrating the concept of adaptive interim analyses into classical group sequential testing to allow the researcher to represent every group sequential plan as an adaptive trial design and to make design changes during the course of the trial after every interim analysis.

Sample size increase during a survival trial when interim results are promising
Yanning Liu,Pilar Lim +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors extend Mehta and Pocock (2011) to provide a way in doing sample size increase in survival trials by dividing the sample space by observed test statistic at interim into three zones: un...

Analysis of "Learn-As-You-Go" (LAGO) Studies
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed methods for estimating the intervention effects in a learn-as-you-go (LAGO) adaptive studies, where the intervention is a complex package consisting of multiple components, and is adapted in stages during the study based on past outcome data.

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
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.
