Given the increase in novel agents and difficulty with planning and completing many phase III studies, various phase II trial design options should be considered to more effectively guide phase III trial plans. The need for novel phase II trial designs has increased, given the number of novel molecular targeted therapies now available for testing, an abundance of cytostatic agents, and limited ...
