Date: Tuesday 1st December 2020 Time: 14:00 - 15:00 GMT Speakers: Jenny Thomas (Covance), Chris Smith (Covance), and Alice Hedge (Covance)
Who is this event intended for? Anybody keen to learn about the combining of sexes for statistical analysis in Toxicology, and the guideline recommendations pertaining to this topic. What is the benefit of attending? To gain an overview of regulatory guidelines and the application to both ECG Data and DART Data, whilst looking at the consideration of sex in Toxicology.

Overview
The webinar will provide a general introduction to the topic of combining sexes for statistical analysis in Toxicology. It will also discuss guideline recommendations pertaining to this topic.
For electrocardiography and jacketed external telemetry data, it will discuss scientific preferences, historical data review and statistical recommendations.
For Developmental and Reproductive Toxicology endpoints, it will focus on neurobehavioral data. In these studies, the actual impact of sex on a given endpoint can be very much dependent on the age of the animals being tested. It is widely considered by scientists that very young animals may not demonstrate any differences due to sex. However, these tests are conducted at various stages in development so a statistical plan that accounts for potential sex differences, whilst still allowing for the additional power that may be observed from pooling the sexes is required.

Upcoming Events
PSI Mentoring 2025
Date: Ongoing 6 month cycle beginning late April/early May 2024
Are you a member of PSI looking to further your career or help develop others - why not sign up to the PSI Mentoring scheme? You can expand your network, improve your leadership skills and learn from more senior colleagues in the industry.
PSI Training Course: Mixed Models and Repeated Measures
This course is presented through lectures and practical sessions using SAS code. It is suitable for statisticians working on clinical trials, who already have a good understanding of linear and generalised linear models.
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.
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 is an interactive online training workshop providing an in-depth review of the estimand framework as laid out by ICH E9(R1) addendum with inputs from estimand experts, case studies, quizzes and opportunity for discussions. You will develop an estimand in a therapeutic area of interest to your company. In an online break-out room, you will join a series of team discussions to implement the estimand framework in a case study, aligning estimands, design, conduct, analysis, (assumptions + sensitivity analyses) to the clinical objective and therapeutic setting.
