Adaptive Clinical Trials: How Advanced Adaptive Methods Can Improve Your Next Study

Adaptive methods are increasingly used for statistical issues in research, but this limited use overlooks the most powerful and sustained advantages: application of the same adaptive principles to how a study is run. This approach focuses on continuous measurement and refinement of key study metrics that include rapid enrollment, reduced waste, lowering monitoring costs, and quick study conclusion and database lock. Compared to traditional approaches, adaptive methods typically enable 20% faster enrollment, 20-80% lower study query rates, 20-60% lower monitoring costs, and 50% faster database locks.

This audio conference discusses the tools and processes essential to this approach, along with design and planning issues and net financial impact on Net Present Value and Internal Rate of Return.

Adaptive Clinical Trials: How Advanced Adaptive Methods Can Improve Your Next Study was presented by Michael Rosenberg, M.D., Ph. D., CEO, with Health Decisions and aired on 2009-02-18. To download this event, please visit our site at www.fxconferences.com
