East Architect: A Powerful New Statistical Environment for Designing, Monitoring, and Simulating Clinical Trials — Continuing Education CTW
ASA , Cytel Software Corporation
Instructor(s): Cyrus R Mehta, Cytel Inc.
"This workshop introduces East® Architect, the entirely re-designed update of our industry standard clinical trial design tool. With the new East Architect you can now design, monitor and simulate single look, group sequential and adaptive trials with one arm, two or multiple arms - with binary, continuous or time-to-event endpoints. We'll tour the new interface - Cytel's ArchitectT platform - enabling simultaneous previews of multiple design scenarios to optimize your choosing of design parameters. You'll experience the advantages of reading-in external source data sets for interim and final analyses, and when computing conditional power. Also reviewed: new simulation capabilities extending available designs through calls to external R functions, new capabilities to handle trials with delayed response and drop-outs provides a more realistic assessment of early stopping costs vs. benefits, and how to produce customized reports with a special canvas combining plots, output and text "
