独立增量与组序贯检验AI 解读

Widely used methods and software for group sequential tests of a null hypothesis of no treatment difference that allow for early stopping of a clinical trial depend primarily on the fact that sequentially-computed test statistics have the independent increments property. However, there are many practical situations where the sequentially-computed test statistics do not possess this property. Key examples are in trials where the primary outcome is a time to an event but where…

结局延迟随机临床试验期中监测的组序贯方法AI 解读

The primary analysis in two-arm clinical trials usually involves inference on a scalar treatment effect parameter; e.g., depending on the outcome, the difference of treatment-specific means, risk difference, risk ratio, or odds ratio. Most clinical trials are monitored for the possibility of early stopping. Because ordinarily the outcome on any given subject can be ascertained only after some time lag, at the time of an interim analysis, among the subjects already enrolled,…
