题目：Randomized Phase Ib Decision Making in a Bayesian Framework
摘要：Confronted with the increasing complexities in drug development and driven by the continuous desire to increase research and development productivity, there is a general trend of pharmaceutical companies moving forward to more innovative drug development approaches of futility-rule based and accelerated approval (AA) filing strategy integrated seamless early and late development, to achieve the goal of quick-win and fast-fail. In this background, I will introduce a phase 1b/3 adaptive framework with evaluating the efficacy and safety of a New Molecular Entity (NME) in oncology setting. The framework incorporates an adaptive two-stage design with an regimen selection and futility-rule based efficacy gating analysis performed in Stage 1 (Phase 1b), and includes in Stage 2 (Phase 3) a randomized comparison of the investigated regimen selected in Stage 1 versus standard of care treatment. The regimen selection and efficacy gating thresholds of stage 1 were defined upon Bayesian posterior probabilities simulated through a Dirichlet-Multinomial Bayesian model in order to bridge historical information and adapt to co-primary endpoints of response rates. In this talk, I will describe the adaptive design philosophy as well as key statistical challenges in such drug development model.
