Abstract:
In clinical trials it has become increasingly common for cost data to be collected in addition to data on clinical effectiveness. In response to this, new statistical methodology has been developed. Initially, efforts were focused on the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio, but as the problems with ratio statistics became apparent, attention was switched to incremental net benefit. In this paper statistical methods based on an incremental net benefit approach are given and illustrated with an example from the gastrointestinal literature. The relationship between incremental net benefit and incremental cost-effectiveness is emphasized.

Types of Biopharmaceutical Studies: Controlled and Non-Controlled Approaches
Non-controlled studies, commonly employed for initial exploration, lack a control group, rendering them susceptible to biases and external influences. In contrast, controlled...

Noncompartmental Analysis: Miscellaneous Pharmacokinetic Parameters
One key aspect of the noncompartmental approach is determining a drug's total clearance. This can be done by dividing the drug dose by the area under the concentration-time curve from zero to infinity. The area under the concentration-time curve represents the drug's overall...
