Bioequivalence and Statistics in Clinical Pharmacology - Continuing Education - Course
The ASA
Instructor(s): Scott Patterson, GlaxoSmithKline, Byron Jones, Pfizer Inc.
This course will cover the application and basic elements of the theory of statistical methods in clinical pharmacology. The morning will deal with techniques used in the assessment of bioequivalence---the study of a drug formulation to confirm its equivalence to another. The afternoon will focus on the use of statistics in clinical pharmacology studies of safety, ECG monitoring, efficacy, and population pharmacokinetics. The emphasis will be on study design, analysis, and interpretation of data using real-data examples from the authors' experiences. RECOMMENDED TEXTBOOK: Patterson, S. and Jones, B. (2005): Bioequivalence and Statistics in Clinical Pharmacology. CRC Press. ISBN: 1584885300. Course attendees are expected to be familiar with the topic at the level of: Design and Analysis of Cross-over Trials by B. Jones and M. Kenward, Chapman and Hall OR Cross-over Trials in Clinical Research by Sean Senn, John Wiley and Sons.
