Statistics

People working with statisticsOur statistical group has extensive experience in the design and analysis of clinical trials including adaptive designs and is familiar with a wide range of therapeutic areas, including cardiology, neurology, endocrinology, respiratory, oncology, infectious diseases, critical care, injury, pain control and substance abuse.

While the majority of our work is related to clinical trials, the statistical team supports a range of other research projects (cross-sectional surveys, case-control studies, cluster trials, etc.) and provides general advice and training. The team also has the capacity to execute an innovative statistical research program aimed at addressing methodological problems relevant to our medical research.

We support clinical trials and other research projects from conception to publication. All the analyses use up-to-date and validated software (e.g. SAS, Stata or R for statistical analyses, PASS for sample size calculations) and are performed to ICH GCP standards with a particular emphasis on validation, traceability and reproducibility.

Statistical services include:

  • Study design and protocol review
  • Sample size and power calculations
  • Randomisation
  • Statistical analysis plan
  • Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) support
  • Interim analyses
  • Statistical programming and validation
  • Reports and scientific publications
