Abstract:

Despite the release in 2010 of an FDA draft guidance on non-inferiority trials, controversies still exist. Perhaps the most difficult issue in designing non-inferiority trials has been specification of the non-inferiority margin, particularly when there's insufficient historical placebo-controlled information. The subjectivity of the currently used approaches for margin specification is also a source of the controversies. This session is to provide a platform for further dialogue on non-inferiority trials, including a new approach for margin specification.
