    Area of Science:

    • Biostatistics
    • Clinical Trial Methodology
    • Medical Research

    Background:

    • The regression effect can distort the perceived relationship between treatment outcomes and baseline measurements in clinical studies.
    • Accurate assessment of drug or treatment efficacy is crucial for patient care and medical advancement.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To propose a statistical method for adjusting the regression effect in clinical trial data.
    • To introduce a novel test for detecting differential drug effects, accounting for baseline measurements.
    • To validate the proposed method using real-world blood pressure data.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a statistical adjustment method to mitigate the regression effect.
    • Formulation of a likelihood ratio test for differential drug effect, linked to variance equality tests.
