Subgroup identification from randomized clinical trial data.
We consider the problem of identifying a subgroup of patients who may have an enhanced treatment effect in a randomized clinical trial, and it is desirable that the subgroup be defined by a limited number of covariates. For this problem, the development of a standard, pre-determined strategy may help to avoid the well-known dangers of subgroup analysis. We present a method developed to find sub...
متن کاملAdding ofloxacin to standard triple-drug regimens increased the Helicobacter pylori eradication rate: Data from randomized clinical trial
Background: The rate of Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) eradication in dyspeptic patients using bismuth- based triple therapy is low due to bacterial that are resistant to antibiotics. The results of recent studies regarding levofloxacin have been encouraging, but the high cost of treatment prevents its routine administration. We, therefore, performed the present double-blind clinical trial to c...

متن کاملBiomarkers, subgroup evaluation, and clinical trial design.
Advances in clinical and basic sciences are raising the potential to use genetic and clinical biomarkers to identify a subgroup of patients who would most likely benefit from treatment, and to evaluate the benefit of treatment in that subgroup. To make full use of this potential, special clinical trial designs and analyses are needed. For identifying and evaluating a subgroup based on a single ...
متن کاملAnalysis of Subgroup Data of Clinical Trials
Large randomized controlled clinical trials are the gold standard to evaluate and compare the effects of treatments. It is common practice for investigators to explore and even attempt to compare treatments, beyond the first round of primary analyses, for various subsets of the study populations based on scientific or clinical interests to take advantage of the potentially rich information cont...
