Abstract:

Hierarchical data structure is common in the safety data. For example, patient nested within site, site nested within trial, and trial nested within drug, drug nested within drug class. To avoid publication bias using Meta analysis and adjust detailed knowledge of natural history of adverse event in the safe review, we applied multilevel models on pooled safety dataset to detect whether a class of drug is associated with increased risk of 30 day post treatment all cause mortality.
