Global assessment measures for assessing efficacy in dementia drug trials.
The use of judgment-based global measures of clinical treatment effects has a long history in the regulatory approval of drugs for the treatment of dementia. This paper reviews current use of these measures, noting several practical difficulties with their implementation. Importantly, global measures have usually yielded general estimates of drug effects similar to psychometric test batteries, ...
متن کاملClinical Trials in the Assessment of Drug Efficacy and Safety.
NEW drugs must be tried out adequately in two or more unrelated animal species before the compound is administered to man (Noel, 1962). The extent of such testing depends on the proposed duration of clinical use. In man the phases of introduction of new compounds may be divided into three: 1. initial human administration; 2. clinical trial to assess efficacy; 3. general medical use. The amount ...
متن کاملValidation of Instruments for Assessing Drug Safety Management During the Conduction of Clinical Trials
Background The management of drug safety with the collection of reliable safety data during the conduction of clinical trials conduct is essential for the registry and marketing of products. The systematic evaluation of this process, based on objective measures, requires the application of quality instruments. This study was aimed to design and validate eight instruments through the components ...
متن کاملAssessing treatment efficacy in noninferiority trials.
Often one of the primary objectives of an active-controlled noninferiority trial without a placebo arm is to assert that an experimental treatment would have been more effective than a putative placebo had the placebo been included in the trial. This may be an important consideration for regulatory applications. To achieve this objective, such a noninferiority analysis entails cross-trial stati...
متن کاملHuman Laboratory Settings for Assessing Drug Craving Implications for the Evaluation of Treatment Efficacy
Research on assessing craving in laboratory settings often involves inducing and then measuring craving in subjects. Cue-induced craving is studied in laboratory settings using the cue reactivity paradigm, in which drug-related photos, videos, evocative scripts, olfactory cues, and paraphernalia may induce craving. Cue-induced craving evoked by drug-related stimuli could be associated with rela...
