Abstract:
|
Usually, the primary endpoint has to be pre-specified at the designing stage of the trial. For some trials, the choice of an appropriate primary endpoint at the designing stage is difficult because of great uncertainty in anticipated outcomes for different endpoints. This talk considers using a pre-specified procedure, based on the blinded outcome of the trial, to select the primary endpoint. I will examine the conditions for no inflation of type I error and proper statistical adjustment when an inflation of type I error is present. I will compare the power of this approach with the conventional approaches where the primary endpoint is pre-specified.
