Data Monitoring Committees (DMCs) (also known as Data and Safety Monitoring Boards, DSMBs) are responsible for the review of accumulating data from ongoing clinical trials. The DMC will advise the trial sponsor regarding the continuing safety of trial subjects and those yet to be recruited to the trial, as well as the continuing validity and scientific merit of the trial (FDA Guidance for Clinical Trial Sponsor - Establishment and Operation of Clinical Trial Data Monitoring Committees). DMCs can also be used to analyse unblinded data for studies with group sequential design and other adaptive design elements to reduce potential operational bias.
Topics covered include:
• Introduction to DMCs
- Responsibilities within a DMC
- DMC charter
- Practical considerations
- Statistical monitoring methods
• DMC case studies
• Interactive DMC workshop
• Perspectives from the Independent Statistician
• Importance and expectations of a DMC from a regulatory perspective
• The new role of DMCs in adaptive designs and platform studies
• Experiences of DMCs during the pandemic
