| Research Abstract |
Statistical methodologies for Improving predictability in clinical research and development of drugs with shorten the time, saving the cost, and improving productivity were considered. (1) the exponential cure classification and regression tree (CART) was newly developed to indentify the patients group with higher risks of remissions and recurrence of diseases, especially with application of major depressive disorder and the statistical simulation for assessment of clinical trial designs were performed with the models suggested model. (2) Performances of randomization methods frequently used in clinical trials were theoretically and numerically assessed. In addition, issues in groups sequential design with sample size modification based on multiple co-primary endpoints were discussed. (3) Power and sample size determinations in clinical trials with multiple correlated continuous, binary and time to events endpoints were discussed and some guidance was provided to how to consider the correlation between the endpoints in power and sample size determinations.
