Predictive Value of Clinical Judgment of Tumour Progression in Phase II Trials
BACKGROUND The diagnosis of tumour progression or progressive disease (PD) is a key element for designing and interpreting contemporary phase II trials. In some cases, PD is stated by the physician and is not formally confirmed by imaging. PURPOSE In this study, we intend to analyze the value of the PD based on clinical judgment and the risk of overestimating the occurrence of PD by clinical ...
متن کاملA predictive probability design for phase II cancer clinical trials.
BACKGROUND Two- or three-stage designs are commonly used in phase II cancer clinical trials. These designs possess good frequentist properties and allow early termination of the trial when the interim data indicate that the experimental regimen is inefficacious. The rigid study design, however, can be difficult to follow exactly because the response has to be evaluated at prespecified fixed num...

چکیده پلاتین، فلزی نجیب، پایدار و گران قیمت با خاصیت کاتالیزوری زیاد است که کاربرد های صنعتی فراوانی دارد. کمپلکس های پلاتین(ii) به عنوان دارو های ضد سرطان شناخته شدند و در شیمی درمانی بیماران سرطانی کاربرد دارند. خاصیت کاتالیزوری و عملکرد گزینشی پلاتین مستقیماً به اندازه و- شکل ماده ی پلاتینی بستگی دارد. بعضی از نانو ذرات فلزی در سطح مشترک مایع- مایع سنتز شده اند، اما نانو ساختار های پلاتین ب...
Modeling Heterogeneity in Phase II Clinical Trials
Problem statement: The common assumption in non-randomized Phase II clinical trials is a homogeneous population with homogeneous response. This assumption is at odds with many trials today; a heterogeneous response due to the existence of subgroups. Approach: In order to examine the effects of heterogeneity on the trial outcome, a systematic platform is developed to quantify the range and class...

Introduction: Invagination is the most common cause of acute abdomen and the second common cause of intestinal obstruction in the children under the age of two years, and the delay in diagnosis and treatment can be dangerous and even fatal. The aim of this study is to estimate the exact value of the diagnostic clinical and radiological findings in order to speed up the diagnosis of this emerg...
