Abstract:
This Research Note has explored the strengths, risks and potential complexity of adaptive trials. The logistical components surrounding the implementation of adaptive trials require a highly integrated, multidisciplinary team encompassing clinicians, statisticians, trialists, consumers, data managers and computer scientists. The challenges are considerable but adaptive trials have been demonstrated to deliver on the promise of simultaneously evaluating and implementing the best treatment option(s) to address the complexity and science of modern diseases.
