Clinical Trials Summary

Clinical Trials: Study Design, Endpoints and Biomarkers, Drug Safety, and FDA and ICH Guidelines by Tom Brody (Consultant for Second Genome, Inc. (Crohn's disease), Rigel Pharmaceuticals (platelet disorder), PrimeGen Biotech (stem cell therapy), Regeneron Pharmaceuticals (broadly neutralizing antibodies for HIV), and Biogen IDEC (multiple sclerosis))

Clinical Trials, Second Edition, offers those engaged in clinical trial design a valuable and practical guide. This book takes an integrated approach to incorporate biomedical science, laboratory data of human study, endpoint specification, legal and regulatory aspects and much more with the fundamentals of clinical trial design. It provides an overview of the design options along with the specific details of trial design and offers guidance on how to make appropriate choices. Full of numerous examples and now containing actual decisions from FDA reviewers to better inform trial design, the 2nd edition of Clinical Trials is a must-have resource for early and mid-career researchers and clinicians who design and conduct clinical trials.
