Biostatistics

At VAICS, we offer advanced Biostatistics services that play a crucial role in the design, execution, and interpretation of clinical trials and research studies. Our team of expert biostatisticians utilizes sophisticated statistical techniques and technologies to ensure the accuracy, integrity, and regulatory compliance of your research data.

Study design and protocol development

Inputs to Protocol, Study Design, Statistical Sections, and Study Endpoints :

Protocol development

We collaborate with clients to draft and refine study protocols, incorporating statistical inputs that align with research objectives and regulatory standards. This involves outlining study goals, designing experimental procedures, and specifying statistical methods.

Study design

Our expertise extends to crafting study designs that maximize research efficiency and accuracy. We help define the study population, determine the structure and phases of the study, and select appropriate methodologies such as randomized controlled trials, observational studies, or cross-sectional studies.

Statistical sections

We develop the statistical sections of the protocol, detailing the methodologies for data collection and analysis. This includes specifying the types of statistical tests to be used, handling of outliers, and approaches for managing missing data.

Study endpoints

Defining clear, measurable endpoints is essential for assessing study outcomes. We assist in identifying and articulating primary and secondary endpoints, ensuring they are aligned with the study’s objectives and can be effectively measured and analysed.

Comprehensive SAP creation

The Statistical Analysis Plan (SAP) is a detailed document that guides the analysis of study data. We develop SAPs that outline the statistical methods, procedures for handling data, and the approach for interpreting results. This includes specifying how to handle missing data, define statistical significance, and report results.

Data collection and Randomization

CRF design expertise

We contribute to the design of Case Report Forms (CRFs), which are used to collect data from study participants. This involves specifying data fields, designing the layout of forms, and ensuring that all required information is captured accurately. Our goal is to create CRFs that facilitate efficient data collection and minimize errors.

 

Randomization process

Randomization is crucial for eliminating bias in clinical trials. We generate randomization lists that ensure participants are allocated to different study groups in a random and unbiased manner. This involves using statistical algorithms and randomization techniques to create lists that are both valid and reliable.

Statistical analysis and modeling

Power and sample size analysis

Determining the appropriate sample size is vital for the validity of a study. We perform power and sample size calculations based on the study design, expected effect sizes, and desired statistical power. This ensures that the study has sufficient participants to detect meaningful differences and achieve reliable results.

DMC/DSMB support

Data Monitoring Committees (DMCs) and Data Safety Monitoring Boards (DSMBs) play a critical role in overseeing the safety and efficacy of ongoing studies. We support these committees by providing detailed statistical analyses of interim data, helping to assess the safety profile and efficacy of the treatment being tested.

Interim analysis

Interim analyses are conducted at predefined points during the study to evaluate progress and make decisions about continuing or modifying the study. We provide expertise in conducting these analyses, ensuring that the results are accurately interpreted and used to guide study decisions.

Regulatory and submission support

Integrated summary of safety

The ISS provides a comprehensive summary of safety data collected during clinical trials. We assist in preparing this summary by compiling and analyzing adverse event data, evaluating safety trends, and ensuring that the summary meets regulatory requirements.

Integrated summary of efficacy

The ISE summarizes efficacy data from clinical trials, demonstrating the effectiveness of the intervention being studied. We support the development of the ISE by analyzing efficacy data, compiling results across studies, and preparing documentation for regulatory submissions.
