ICTI Biostatistics Expert speaks at International Conference
January 24, 2006
Yardley, PA – January 24, 2006 – Continuing Interactive Clinical Technologies Inc.’s (ICTI) leadership in Adaptive Clinical Trial Design and Implementation, ICTI’s Associate Director of Biostatistics, Eva Miller, Ph.D., has been invited to present at the upcoming Strategic Management Information (SMi) meeting of Innovating Clinical Drug Development. The annual conference, being held January 25-26, 2006 in London, includes a session in which Dr. Miller will present on,
“Customized Software Incorporating Adaptive Randomizations for Clinical Trials.”
Because of the efficiencies they allow, adaptive trial designs are increasingly being used by both small biotechs and large pharmaceutical companies. Adaptive randomizations, a type of adaptive trial design, are especially valuable for large studies with many subpopulations or when blinding of study drug/device versus placebo is not possible. They are often used in studies of rare diseases, in oncology studies, and in medical device trials. Dr. Miller’s presentation will recount ICTI’s experience in working with clients to design and execute adaptive clinical trial designs.
Richard McCann, ICTI’s President, noted,
“Our unique combination of technologies for real-time clinical trial data capture, along with the capabilities of our sister company Clinical Trial Services (CTS) to provide state-of-the-art clinical supplies management, positions ICTI to make adaptive clinical trial designs feasible. We are delighted to have our capabilities and experience presented at this prestigious conference.”
