Standard methods of survival analysis based on the Kaplan-Meier estimate of a survivor function, the log rank test and Cox regression modelling are widely used in many different areas of application. But often, the assumptions that underlie these techniques may not be valid, or the data structure may be more complex. Extensions of these basic methods allow particular features of data that occur in practice to be handled appropriately. This course will describe some of these more advanced methods and illustrate their practical application using SAS and R.
The course assumes familiarity with basic methods for summarising survival data, including estimates of the survivor function and the log rank test. Some experience in using the Cox regression model would be advantageous.
This course is aimed at clinical trial statisticians who are new to or with limited experience of machine learning. Attendees will learn about a range of topics in machine learning, including practical sessions in R.
This webinar will explore two different approaches to Correlates of Protection in vaccine development.
Our monthly webinar explores examples of innovative data visualisations relevant to our day to day work. Each month a new dataset is provided from a clinical trial or other relevant example, and participants are invited to submit a graphic that communicates interesting and relevant characteristics of the data.
The event will open with an overview on drug development in women’s health from a clinician perspective. This talk is followed by talks about statistical challenges when planning IVF studies and analysing the menstrual cycles.
This webinar will provide an overview of surrogacy for licensing and reimbursement. In turn, the need of extensions of the SPIRIT and CONSORT statement will be defined and outlined, with case studies to support.
Lea Vaas will present how replacement of concurrent control animals by Virtual Control Groups (VCGs) in systemic toxicity studies may help in contributing to the 3R's principle of animal experimentation: Reduce, Refine, Replace.
We will share a brief overview of what Mobilise D is and why it is an important step stone in the development of digital biomarkers, and how Mobilise D outputs can be relevant for you.
