This study introduces three novel measures to simultaneously assess treatment benefits and risks, aiding personalized treatment decisions. These methods incorporate patient preferences for evaluating clinical trial outcomes effectively.

Area of Science:

  • Clinical Trials
  • Medical Decision Making
  • Health Outcomes Research

Background:

  • Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) are crucial for comparing treatment efficacy and side effects.
  • Individual treatment decisions require evaluating benefits against risks based on personal preferences.
  • Existing methods may not adequately capture the nuanced balance of benefits and risks for individual patients.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose three novel quantitative measures for simultaneously assessing treatment benefits and risks.
  • To develop methods that incorporate individual patient preferences into benefit-risk evaluations.
  • To provide tools for facilitating informed treatment decisions based on clinical trial data.

Main Methods:

  • Development of three distinct measures for benefit-risk assessment.

  • Incorporation of individual outcome weights reflecting patient preferences.
  • Application of proposed measures to data from a phase III antihypertensive clinical trial.
  • Two measures are based on benefit/risk ratios; the third generalizes Hilden's measure.
  • Main Results:

    • The proposed measures provide a framework for quantifying and comparing treatments based on individual benefit-risk evaluations.
    • Demonstration of the utility of the measures using real-world clinical trial data.
    • The methods allow for a more personalized approach to treatment selection.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed measures offer a valuable approach to synthesizing complex clinical trial data for individual decision-making.
    • These tools can enhance shared decision-making between clinicians and patients regarding treatment options.
    • Further application of these measures can improve the personalized use of therapeutic interventions.
