Validation of QT Interval Correction Methods When a Drug Changes Heart Rate
11 Division of Biometrics VI, Office of Biostatistics, Center of Drug Evaluation and Research, Food and Drug Administration, Silver Spring, MD, USA.
Abstract:
The QT interval is correlated with heart rate; therefore, the QT interval is usually corrected by heart rate when drug-induced QT effect is studied. Currently, there are many correction methods that use either fixed or data-driven approaches. The effectiveness of correction methods depends on many factors and varies from study to study. Statistical validation and comparisons need to be performed to determine the most appropriate correction method for each study. We examined different validation methods and explored a new approach to use when the testing drug changes heart rate.

Regulation of Heart Rates
The SNS increases heart rate through the release of norepinephrine and epinephrine, which act on beta-1 adrenergic receptors in the heart. This action increases the rate of depolarization in the sinoatrial (SA) node, the heart's...

Prediction Intervals
However, the point estimate is most likely not the exact value of the population parameter, but close to it. After calculating point estimates, we construct interval estimates, called confidence intervals or prediction intervals. This prediction interval comprises a range of values unlike the point estimate and is a better predictor of the observed sample value, y.
