Dose Finding in Drug Development - Continuing Education - Course
Biopharmaceutical Section, ASA
Instructor(s): Naitee Ting, Pfizer Inc., James MacDougall, Bristol-Myers Squibb Company
For dose finding study designs, the thinking process should start way before a drug candidate enters Phase II. Scientists need to make best use of data obtained from pre-clinical experiments and early Phase I trials, to learn from other drugs of the same class, and to understand the PK and PD properties of the drug candidate. It is also important to consider the formulation, the potential market environment and other similar drugs that may compete with the candidate under study. All these are important considerations for designing the dose response studies. After the dose response clinical data are collected, many statistical approaches are available to perform data analysis. The two main categories are modeling approaches and multiple comparison adjustments. Depending on stage of development and objectives of the study, appropriate method will be selected for data analysis. The usefulness of each approach under various situations will be discussed in this short course.
