Discover how IDDI biostatistics-driven RTSM helped the Sponsor to avoid serious imbalance between the two randomized arms for the treated patients. 

PLEASE FILL IN THE FORM TO ACCESS THE CASE STUDY

SITUATION:

  • A randomized Phase III trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a new drug to treat critical limb ischemia
  • A randomized phase 3 study using a 2:1 minimization algorithm (with 0.8 as the probability) balancing the patients according to minimization factors between 2 arms (Active and Placebo)

CHALLENGES

  • The treatment is only manufactured if the patient is randomized to Active arm. Treatment is using the bone marrow of the patient.
  • If the product cannot be manufactured or is damaged during the transportation, the randomized patient will not be treated.
    => This caused serious imbalance between the two randomized arms for the treated patient

IDDI biostatistics-driven RTSM helped the Sponsor to avoid serious imbalance between the two randomized arms for the treated patients.
