Adaptive Methods in Clinical Research, 17-19 November 2025Info Location Contact More Info Event Information![]()
DescriptionMany confirmatory clinical trials turn out to be negative and do not lead to the registration of a new drug or the introduction of a new treatment. Consequently, there is growing interest amongst clinical researchers in the use of efficient methods for conducting early and late phase trials to identify the most promising compounds, and in using interim analyses to allow trials to be stopped as soon as there is sufficient evidence to reach a convincing conclusion. Adaptive designs allow mid-trial modifications to be made to the trial so that the accumulating data guides investigators to the most appropriate form of evaluation. While offering great flexibility during the trial, they require specialised approaches to be designed and analysed.
