PSI Webinar Personalised Medicine: Statistics for Companion Diagnostics Date for Webinar: Thursday 4th May. 2-3.30pm UK time
Personalised medicines - which are designed to treat particular groups of patients - are becoming increasingly prominent. In order to identify patients suitable for treatment a companion diagnostic assay is often needed. The Personalized Medicines Coalition (PMC) recently published an article stating that 25% of NME approved by FDA in 2016 included a companion diagnostic.
This webinar will introduce and examine some of the considerations required for statisticians working in the field of companion diagnostics and will include information from an FDA (CDRH) speaker and perspectives/ case-studies from representatives from both a pharmaceutical company and a diagnostic company.

Applications of personalized medicine are becoming increasingly prominent. A companion diagnostic assay (CDx) is often desired for patient enrollment in device-drug pivotal clinical trial(s) so that FDA can ensure that appropriate clinical and analytical validation studies are planned and carried out for CDx. However, such a requirement may be difficult or impractical to accomplish. A clinical trial assay (CTA) instead of CDx may be used for patient enrollment in drug-device pivotal clinical trial(s). A supplemental agreement study of CDx and CTA will be required to bridge the clinical results from CTA to CDx. In this webinar, we will discuss statistical challenges in study design and data analysis for bridging study. Particularly, we aimed to provide statistical methods on how to estimate the drug efficacy in CDx intended use population using results from bridging study and CTA-drug pivotal clinical trial.

PSI Introduction to Industry Training (ITIT) Course - 2026/2027
An introductory course giving an overview of the pharmaceutical industry and the drug development process as a whole, aimed at those with 1-3 years' experience. It comprises of six 2-day sessions covering a range of topics including Research and Development, Toxicology, Data Management and the Role of a CRO, Clinical Trials, Reimbursement, and Marketing.
This networking event is aimed at statisticians that are new to the pharmaceutical industry who wish to meet colleagues from different companies and backgrounds.
This webinar brings together three bitesize complementary sessions to help PSI contributors create conference presentations and posters that communicate clearly and inclusively. Participants will explore how to refine their message, prepare materials effectively, and adopt practical habits that support confident, accessible delivery. A focused, supportive session designed to elevate every contribution.
Our monthly webinar series allows attendees to gain practical knowledge and skills in open-source coding and tools, with a focus on applications in the pharmaceutical industry. This month’s session, “Graphics Basics,” will introduce the fundamentals of producing graphics using the ggplot2 package.
Joint PSI/EFSPI Visualisation SIG 'Wonderful Wednesday' Webinars
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.
Join our Health Technology Assessment (HTA) European Special Interest Group (ESIG) for a webinar on the strategic role of statisticians in the Joint Clinical Assessment (JCA). The introduction of the JCA marks a new era for evidence generation and market access in Europe. As HTA requirements become more harmonized and methodologically demanding, the role of statisticians has evolved far beyond data analysis. Today, statistical expertise is central to shaping clinical development strategies, designing robust comparative evidence, and ensuring that submissions withstand the scrutiny of EU-level assessors. In this webinar, we explore how statisticians contribute strategically to successful JCA outcomes.
Statisticians in the Age of AI: On Route to Strategic Partnership
A 90-minute webinar featuring two case studies from Bayer and Roche demonstrating how statisticians successfully integrated into AI programs, followed by interactive discussion on strategies for elevating statistical expertise in the AI era.
Enhancing Clinical Study Reporting with the Estimand Framework
Join us for an insightful webinar where we explore practical strategies for applying the estimand framework in clinical study reporting. Drawing on real-world experiences and case studies, we will share recommendations to help you:
• Understand the role of estimands in improving transparency and interpretation of trial results.
• Navigate common challenges in implementing the framework during reporting.
• Apply best practices to enhance regulatory submissions, webposting in public registries (clinicaltrials.gov/CTIS), and scientific publications.
Whether you are involved in clinical trial design, data analysis, or regulatory submissions, this session will provide actionable guidance to realize the full potential of the estimand framework.
