Area of Science:

  • Biostatistics
  • Clinical Trial Design
  • Pharmacometrics

Background:

  • Dose-response studies are crucial for evaluating compound effects.
  • Existing trend tests for one-way designs have limitations in complex trial structures.
  • Adjusted trend tests improve p-value accuracy for safety assessments.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose an adjusted regression trend test for two-way designs, specifically for multicenter clinical trials.
  • To develop a sequential, step-down procedure that maintains the experimentwise error rate.
  • To enhance the power of trend testing in dose-response evaluations.

Main Methods:

  • Extension of Tukey et al. (1985) and Capizzi et al. (1992) trend tests to two-way designs.
  • Application of a step-down procedure for sequential comparison of each dose to the control.

  • Utilizing a closed testing procedure to control the experimentwise error rate.

    • Main Results:

    • The proposed step-down trend test is suitable for multicenter clinical trials.
    • The sequential procedure effectively adjusts p-values while maintaining the overall error rate.
    • Simulation results indicate superior power compared to the step-down least significant difference test.

    Conclusions:

    • The novel adjusted regression trend test offers improved power and error rate control for two-way dose-response studies.
    • This method provides a robust approach for analyzing multicenter clinical trial data.
    • The step-down trend test is a valuable tool for safety and efficacy assessments in pharmaceutical research.
