DESCRIPTION:To be presented by Carl-Fredrik Burman &amp\; Lisa Hampson\nReg
 ulatory agencies require strong control of the Type I Error for all confir
 matory statistical tests. Multiplicity issues can arise for several reason
 s\, e.g.: the possibility of winning on two different endpoints (like PFS 
 and OS)\, interim analyses\, or testing for effects in several patient gro
 ups. This course will focus on the principles underlying multiple comparis
 on procedures and their applications to confirmatory clinical trials. We w
 ill describe simple ways to construct valid multiple tests\, and will expl
 ore how tests can be incorporated into recycling strategies. Group-sequent
 ial and some common adaptive tests will also be described. Concepts will b
 e introduced through a combination of lectures\, exercises\, and discussio
 n sessions where groups will focus on the issues that might be encountered
  when designing and communicating statistical tests.\n\nThe following topi
 cs will be covered:\n\n    Introduction to Multiple Testing\n    Recycling
  and graphical methods\n    Group sequential and adaptive designs \n    Op
 erating characteristics and improving them using correlations\n    Using d
