项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This request for a competitive continuation grant of R13-CA132565 is to continue to facilitate advances in approaches to the statistical design, implementation and biostatistical analysis of clinical trials, through a continuing series of targeted symposia, involving both statisticians and clinicians. The topic for each symposium will be chosen annually, based on the suitability of an area to benefit from a concentrated symposium, and its potential impact on the practice of clinical trials. We expect that the symposia will continue to address problems and produce solutions that translate readily across disease areas, which historically has been the case for biostatistical methodology, regardless of the disease area that inspired its development. Every symposium is expected to examine methodological approaches in the context of the clinical, ethical and practical environments attendant to the problems being considered. The University of Pennsylvania has a flourishing Institute for Clinical and Translational Medicine and Therapeutics (ITMAT) and was awarded one of the first Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSA) which has solidified and formalized the long standing commitment of the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania and its faculty and resources, to translational science, from early animal and clinical testing to post marketing surveillance of approved interventions. It is our intent to continue to incorporate into the proposed symposia a principle of the CTSA Program, to break down traditional research barriers to achieve efficient and ethical science. The objectives are to develop a series of clinical trials symposia, each focused on an area within one of the stages of assessment of an intervention; to bring together leading scientists (statisticians and clinicians) o be involved in the presentation and discussion of the state of the art and expected developments in these areas; to have pre-conference review by organizers in order to establish controversy and equipoise in the targeted area and incorporate such into program; to seek an audience with both expertise and commitment to participate in the symposia; and to publish the proceedings of the symposia, including discussion, in a timely fashion in a peer reviewed journal. We strongly believe that the nature of clinical trials methodology is not disease specific although there will be a heavier use of certain methodologies in some areas of medicine Over a five-year continued grant period, our intent is to develop an additional five annual single day symposia. Our expectation is that meeting these objectives for the conference series will provide more than just a transfer of information, in allowing for an expansion of the available state-of-the-art information through the contrast of ideas and the elements of discussion. It is our belief that these focused discussions with experts and participants exchanging ideas should enhance the development of new statistical methodology for more efficient, cost effective and ethical evaluation of interventions.

描述（由申请人提供）：对 R13-CA132565 的竞争性持续拨款的请求是通过一系列持续的有针对性的研讨会（涉及统计学家），继续促进临床试验的统计设计、实施和生物统计分析方法的进步和临床医生。每次研讨会的主题每年都会根据某个领域是否适合从集中研讨会中受益及其对临床试验实践的潜在影响来选择。我们期望研讨会将继续解决问题并提出易于跨疾病领域转化的解决方案，这在历史上一直是生物统计方法的情况，无论激发其发展的疾病领域如何。每一次研讨会都应该在临床、伦理和实践环境的背景下审查与所考虑的问题相关的方法论。宾夕法尼亚大学拥有蓬勃发展的临床和转化医学与治疗研究所 (ITMAT)，并荣获首届临床和转化科学奖 (CTSA) 之一，该奖项巩固并正式确立了佩雷尔曼医学院在医学领域的长期承诺。宾夕法尼亚大学及其教职员工和资源，到转化科学，从早期动物和临床测试到批准干预措施的上市后监测。我们打算继续将 CTSA 计划的一项原则纳入拟议的研讨会，以打破传统的研究障碍，实现高效且符合伦理的科学。目标是举办一系列临床试验研讨会，每个研讨会重点关注干预评估的一个阶段内的一个领域；汇集领先的科学家（统计学家和临床医生） o 参与这些领域的最新技术和预期发展的介绍和讨论；组织者进行会前审查，以便在目标领域建立争议并平衡，并将其纳入议程；寻找既具有专业知识又愿意参加研讨会的观众；并及时在同行评审期刊上发表研讨会记录，包括讨论内容。我们坚信，临床试验方法的本质不是特定于疾病的，尽管在某些医学领域会更频繁地使用某些方法。在五年的持续资助期内，我们的目的是再举办五次年度单日研讨会。我们的期望是，实现系列会议的这些目标将不仅仅提供信息传递，还可以通过思想对比和讨论要素来扩展可用的最新信息。我们相信，与专家和参与者交换意见的这些集中讨论应该会促进新统计方法的开发，从而对干预措施进行更有效、更具成本效益和道德的评估。
