The Course Statistics is the art and science of summarising data. Statistics play an essential role in all stages of clinical research from design through to analysis and interpretation. Clinical Trials generate large volumes of data but most of us are looking for the “punch-line”; Did the new treatment work? Were the two groups being compared the same of different? We rely on statistics to help us design the most appropriate trial to answer our questions, to determine the required sample size and to interpret the results. A poorly designed study wastes time, resources and puts patients at unnecessary risk. A solid understanding of statistical principals is important for all team members, not just the team statistician; however for many of us stati…Cedar Court, White Waltham, Maidenhead, Berkshire, SL6 3LW, England

The demand for public health interventions is growing as the NHS and social care system tries to ensure future sustainability. NHS, social care and public health organisations are expected to be able to economically justify any changes in care pathways they propose and there are concerns not only around cost-effectiveness but also the affordability of new initiatives. Many public sector bodies are under pressure to achieve efficiency and productivity savings in order to balance budgets. They are seeking innovations that will reduce cost pressures and they need to understand the impact of changes in different sectors, including primary, community and social care as well as acute care. There is a focus on primary and secondary prevention approaches in public health to try to reduce demand ac…Cedar Court, White Waltham, Maidenhead, Berkshire, SL6 3LW, England

The Course The MHRA GCP Inspectorate has updated their definition of critical to include, ‘where provision of the Trial Master File (TMF) does not comply with Regulation 31A 1-3, as the TMF is not readily available or accessible, or the TMF is incomplete to such an extent that it cannot form the basis of inspection and therefore impedes or obstructs inspectors carrying out their duties in verifying compliance with the regulations.’ This follows numerous issues with inspector access to TMFs and incomplete TMFs. The TMF provides the basis for inspection by the competent authority (2005/28/EC). The UK Clinical Trial Regulations (2004/1031, Regulation 31A) require that the sponsor must keep a TMF and it must be readily available and shall at all times contain the essential documents relating…

Extensive literature searches are the foundation of high quality systematic reviews, health technology assessment (HTA), guideline development and other major projects. Conducting searches to retrieve research evidence from databases and other resources requires a range of knowledge and skills. There are constant challenges to keeping up-to-date with new database features and approaches to achieving efficient searches. Search approaches may need to be adapted depending on the end-product which the search is informing and the resources available. Search approaches increasingly need to be explained to sponsors and other end-users in terms of the extent to which they are fit-for-purpose. This workshop will provide opportunities to learn new techniques, to discuss best approaches, to share ins…Cedar Court, White Waltham, Maidenhead, Berkshire, SL6 3LW, England
