Abstract:
Random coefficient (RC) models are commonly used in clinical trials to estimate the rate of change over time in longitudinal data. Trials utilizing a surrogate endpoint for accelerated approval with a confirmatory longitudinal endpoint to show clinical benefit is a strategy implemented across various therapeutic areas, including immunoglobulin A nephropathy. Understanding conditional power (CP) and information fraction calculations of RC models may help in the design of clinical trials as well as provide support for the confirmatory endpoint at the time of accelerated approval. This paper provides calculation methods, with practical examples, for determining CP at an interim analysis for a RC model with longitudinal data, such as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) assessments to measure rate of change in eGFR slope.

Decision Making: P-value Method
First, a specific claim about the population parameter is proposed. The claim is based on the research question and is stated in a simple form. Further, an opposing statement to the claim is also stated. These statements can act as null and alternative hypotheses: a null hypothesis would be a neutral statement while the alternative hypothesis can...
