Abstract:

In early clinical development, small sample size and shorter study duration are usually limiting factors to selecting endpoints for early signal of efficacy. Exploratory biomarker endpoints that can be measured earlier and easier sometimes does not correlate well with long term clinical benefits. In this talk, we demonstrate the effort of Biostatistics and Data Sciences at Boehringer Ingelheim to leverage deep learning models and consortium database to gain additional insight in pulmonary fibrosis. A proof of concept Kaggle challenge demonstrated the connection of baseline lung CT scan and rate of lung function decline. We further explores the utility of early signals in CT scan to predict long term treatment effect.
