WEBINAR
Pragmatic Trials 101: trial benefits, application, and key considerations for decision-makers and statisticians
WEDNESDAY 30TH AUGUST 2023 · 12:00 PM EDT/9:00 AM PDT
You can register for an earlier version of this webinar (11am BST) for our European audience here.
What are pragmatic trials? When is it best to use them? What key considerations do decision-makers need to know first?
In this webinar, Rachel Tham, Principal Statistician at Veramed, and Thomas Kumke, SSI RWE Strategy Lead at UCB, will dive into the world of pragmatic trials and their use within clinical research. Understand why and when pragmatic trials are best used, the common challenges of pragmatic trials and how they can be addressed, and what considerations need to be made when planning a pragmatic trial.
Using their insight from publications, working groups, and studies, Rachel and Thomas will explore certain tools for pragmatic trials and their application before jumping into Cluster Randomized Trials, considerations to keep in mind, and their benefits with a unique ability to naturally account for herd immunity in vaccine studies.
Register today.
AGENDA
- Defining pragmatic trials and their role in evidence generation
- Tools and applications for pragmatic trials
- Common challenges of pragmatic trials and their operational and statistical solutions
- Key considerations you might need to be aware of BEFORE being “pragmatic”
- The important differences between randomized control trials (RCT) and cluster randomized trials (CRT)
- The application of cluster randomized trials in vaccines as an example of cluster randomized trials.
- Key considerations for statisticians when conducting a cluster randomized trial
- 10 minute Q&A session
