This is the preliminary program for the 2005 Joint Statistical Meetings in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Currently included in this program is the "technical" program, schedule of invited, topic contributed, regular contributed and poster sessions; Continuing Education courses (August 7-10, 2005); and Committee and Business Meetings. This on-line program will be updated frequently to reflect the most current revisions.

Abstract:

A metaanalysis from multiple data resources is an important method to obtain a comprehensive understanding of a drug's pharmacokinetics (PK). In drug-drug interaction research, often PK data on inhibitor/inducer or substrate's PK are not directly available from clinical studies, though there always exist rich published PK information in the literature. For example, sample mean plasma drug concentrations and their standard deviations have been reported routinely. However, no statistical metaanalysis method was developed to analyze these data and build up a drug's PK model. In this paper, an innovative general Bayesian metaanalysis model framework was established to analyze multiple published sample mean datasets. It is a three-level hierarchical model, in which a study-specific sample mean model is the first level, a random-effects model connecting different PK studies is the second level, and all priors of PK parameters are specified in the third level. This Bayesian model has the advantage of adapting informative prior when some PK parameters' bounds are known.
