[Statlist] FW: PSI one day meeting on time-to-event and recurrent event endpoints taking place on Novartis Basel Campus October 29, 2019

[Blatna, Bibiana]

Dear all,

PSI (Statisticians in the Pharmaceutical Industry) is holding the one-day event 'Time-to-event and Recurrent Event Endpoints in Clinical Trials' at the Novartis Campus in Basel on Tuesday, October 29, 2019.

Cox proportional hazard models and Kaplan-Meier curves often constitute the standard statistical analysis of clinical trials when the primary interest is in a single event such as progression-free survival, death, etc. However, there are event-driven trials in which the mentioned methods cannot capture the complexity of the primary event of interest. Examples include: (i) trials in which the occurrence of the primary event of interest is precluded by a different event, e.g. death precludes events such as hospitalizations; (ii) trials in which the primary event of interest is a recurrent event, i.e. an event that can occur multiple times for a single patient such as exacerbations in asthma.

This PSI one-day event provides the opportunity to hear from knowledgeable speakers from health authorities, academia, and pharma. The speakers will share their thoughts, ideas and experiences, including case studies, on a range of particular issues relating to planning, conduct, and analysis of event-driven trials. A variety of non-standard time-to-event and recurrent event models for clinical trials will be presented and their implications for the estimand framework will be discussed.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.

Thank you and kind regards,
David and Tobias on behalf of the PSI Scientific Committee
