Design and Analysis of Non-Inferiority Trials de Mark D. Rothmann

Design and Analysis of Non-Inferiority Trials: Chapman & Hall/CRC Biostatistics Series

Autor Mark D. Rothmann, Brian L. Wiens, Ivan S.F. Chan

en Limba Engleză Hardback – 12 iul 2011

The increased use of non-inferiority analysis has been accompanied by a proliferation of research on the design and analysis of non-inferiority studies. Using examples from real clinical trials, Design and Analysis of Non-Inferiority Trials brings together this body of research and confronts the issues involved in the design of a non-inferiority trial. Each chapter begins with a non-technical introduction, making the text easily understood by those without prior knowledge of this type of trial.
Topics covered include:

A variety of issues of non-inferiority trials, including multiple comparisons, missing data, analysis population, the use of safety margins, the internal consistency of non-inferiority inference, the use of surrogate endpoints, trial monitoring, and equivalence trials
Specific issues and analysis methods when the data are binary, continuous, and time-to-event
The history of non-inferiority trials and the design and conduct considerations for a non-inferiority trial
The strength of evidence of an efficacy finding and how to evaluate the effect size of an active control therapy

A comprehensive discussion on the purpose and issues involved with non-inferiority trials, Design and Analysis of Non-inferiority Trials will assist current and future scientists and statisticians on the optimal design of non-inferiority trials and in assessing the quality of non-inferiority comparisons done in practice.

Recenzii

"This important book is relevant because this type of trial is preferred when an approved treatment is available and a conventional placebo-controlled trial would be difficult to justify. These trials are complex and this book goes a long way toward helping the investigator with the issues that arise. … This book is comprehensive and includes extensive coverage of every topic. It includes both frequentist and Bayesian approaches as appropriate. Throughout every chapter, topics are fully explained and examples are completely worked out, including statistical formulas and results. … a modern and thorough compendium for anyone involved in the design and analysis of noninferiority trials."
—Mark Bailey, Technometrics, November 2014
"… it offers unique perspectives and insights from three renowned experts in clinical trials who work at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and in the pharmaceutical industry. It is refreshing to see FDA and industry perspectives blended thoughtfully, as in this book. … Written clearly and concisely, the book is a pleasure to read. Although there are some technical discussions intended for statisticians, most of the book is readily accessible to medical researchers with little statistical training. We recommend the book to anyone interested in NI trials—statisticians and nonstatisticians alike."
—Zhiwei Zhang and Lei Nie, Journal of the American Statistical Association, March 2014
"It is a pleasure to see a book completely devoted to the challenging arena of non-inferiority trials. … I am very impressed with its depth and breadth, and believe that it will be an important resource for anyone involved in designing non-inferiority trials. The authors weave in many examples, primarily in oncology, as well as a large set of references from the now substantial statistical literature on non-inferiority designs. … This book is a must-have resource for those involved in non-inferiority trials for the pharmaceutical industry, and a must-read for those new to non-inferiority trials. A portion of a special topics course in a biostatistics department could be built around this book, and this exposure would be especially valuable for students considering a career in or around the pharmaceutical industry."
—Erica Brittain, Australian & New Zealand Journal of Statistics, May 2012
"This is the first book which is devoted solely to non-inferiority studies. All three authors have published several papers on that topic over the last years. This comprehensive book covers in more than 400 pages nearly all aspects about non-inferiority trials, and beyond. It is also an excellent source of references about non-inferiority studies. … recommended for anyone working with clinical trials and in particular for those working in late phase drug development. It is an excellent source of concepts and statistical methods relevant for biostatisticians, clinical epidemiologists and students. This book also is a good source for non-inferiority studies for scientists from the clinical field."
—Steffen Witte, Journal of Biopharmaceutical Statistics, 2012

Descriere

The increased use of non-inferiority analysis has been accompanied by a proliferation of research on the design and analysis of non-inferiority studies. Design and Analysis of Non-Inferiority Trials brings together this body of research and confronts the issues involved in the design of a non-inferiority trial. Using examples from real clinical trials, the book discusses general and regulatory issues and illustrates how they affect analysis. Each chapter begins with a non-technical introduction, so the subject is easily understood by those without prior knowledge of non-inferiority clinical trials. The book also provides detailed mathematical approaches along with their mathematical properties.
