  • TUTORIAL in BIOSTATISTICS: the Self-Controlled Case Series Method
    STATISTICS IN MEDICINE Statist. Med. 2005; 0:1–31 Prepared using simauth.cls [Version: 2002/09/18 v1.11] TUTORIAL IN BIOSTATISTICS: The self-controlled case series method Heather J. Whitaker1, C. Paddy Farrington1, Bart Spiessens2 and Patrick Musonda1 1 Department of Statistics, The Open University, Milton Keynes, MK7 6AA, UK. 2 GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals, Rue de l’Institut 89, B-1330 Rixensart, Belgium. SUMMARY The self-controlled case series method was developed to investigate associations between acute outcomes and transient exposures, using only data on cases, that is, on individuals who have experienced the outcome of interest. Inference is within individuals, and hence fixed covariates effects are implicitly controlled for within a proportional incidence framework. We describe the origins, assumptions, limitations, and uses of the method. The rationale for the model and the derivation of the likelihood are explained in detail using a worked example on vaccine safety. Code for fitting the model in the statistical package STATA is described. Two further vaccine safety data sets are used to illustrate a range of modelling issues and extensions of the basic model. Some brief pointers on the design of case series studies are provided. The data sets, STATA code, and further implementation details in SAS, GENSTAT and GLIM are available from an associated website. key words: case series; conditional likelihood; control; epidemiology; modelling; proportional incidence Copyright c 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 1. Introduction The self-controlled case series method, or case series method for short, provides an alternative to more established cohort or case-control methods for investigating the association between a time-varying exposure and an outcome event.

  • Biometrics & Biostatistics
    Hanley and Moodie, J Biomet Biostat 2011, 2:5 Biometrics & Biostatistics http://dx.doi.org/10.4172/2155-6180.1000124 Research Article Article OpenOpen Access Access Sample Size, Precision and Power Calculations: A Unified Approach James A Hanley* and Erica EM Moodie Department of Epidemiology, Biostatistics, and Occupational Health, McGill University, Canada Abstract The sample size formulae given in elementary biostatistics textbooks deal only with simple situations: estimation of one, or a comparison of at most two, mean(s) or proportion(s). While many specialized textbooks give sample formulae/tables for analyses involving odds and rate ratios, few deal explicitly with statistical considera tions for slopes (regression coefficients), for analyses involving confounding variables or with the fact that most analyses rely on some type of generalized linear model. Thus, the investigator is typically forced to use “black-box” computer programs or tables, or to borrow from tables in the social sciences, where the emphasis is on cor- relation coefficients. The concern in the – usually very separate – modules or stand alone software programs is more with user friendly input and output. The emphasis on numerical exactness is particularly unfortunate, given the rough, prospective, and thus uncertain, nature of the exercise, and that different textbooks and software may give different sample sizes for the same design. In addition, some programs focus on required numbers per group, others on an overall number. We present users with a single universal (though sometimes approximate) formula that explicitly isolates the impacts of the various factors one from another, and gives some insight into the determinants for each factor.

Abstract All rights reserved Adaptive enrichment designs for clinical trials may include rules that use in- terim data to identify treatment-sensitive patient subgroups, select or com- pare treatments, or change entry criteria. A common setting is a trial to Annu. Rev. Stat. Appl. 2021.8:393-411. Downloaded from www.annualreviews.org compare a new biologically targeted agent to standard therapy. An enrich- ment design’s structure depends on its goals, how it accounts for patient heterogeneity and treatment effects, and practical constraints. This article Access provided by University of Texas - M.D. Anderson Cancer Center on 03/10/21. For personal use only. first covers basic concepts, including treatment-biomarker interaction, pre- cision medicine, selection bias, and sequentially adaptive decision making, and briefly describes some different types of enrichment. Numerical illus- trations are provided for qualitatively different cases involving treatment- biomarker interactions. Reviews are given of adaptive signature designs; a Bayesian design that uses a random partition to identify treatment-sensitive biomarker subgroups and assign treatments; and designs that enrich superior treatment sample sizes overall or within subgroups, make subgroup-specific decisions, or include outcome-adaptive randomization.
