The three most important aspects of a clinical trial are: de sign\, design and design. A sample size estimate is just one aspect of a c linical study design. The course describes calculations for sample size es timation in the design of clinical trials. It will highlight how the objec tives of a clinical trial will impact on sample size calculations. The cou rse is a practical course and all methods will be illustrated with example s and case studies.

Agenda

\n

There will be 4 sessions per day\, each between 1.30-2.00 hours. A session will consist of both lecture s and practicals\, involving calculators or other calculation devices.&nbs p\;

After introductions \;the course will give a background to sample size calculations and then go on to cover sample sizes in superiority tria ls with Normal and binary data\, ending the day with trials based on preci sion. Each lecture will be based on a hands on practical of the methods.\n

Day 2

T he day will begin with \;sample sizes for cross-over trials followed b y a practical which will also enforce the lessons from day 1. The course w ill then cover calculations for non-inferiority and equivalence trials as well as trials with ordinal data and trials with survival data. It will th en move on to more advanced topics of sample sizes for pilot trials and th e design of trials which will be adaptive\, ending the day with further st atistical considerations in the design of studies.
