How SMART is your trial? Obtain quality data about dynamic treatment regimes

ALL ARE WELCOME

Abstract:

Current practice in randomized trials typically focuses on identifying the single best treatment for a particular condition. Clinical practice, however, has consistently been more concerned with a patient- rather than disease-centric approach. Dynamic treatment regimes are part of a rapidly expanding area of research whereby such personalized treatment strategies can be identified. These methods can lead to improved results over standard 'one size fits all' approaches, and provide a route to formalizing treatment adjustments in an evidence-based manner. In this talk, I will give an introduction to dynamic treatment regimes, focusing primarily on sequential multiple assignment randomized trials (SMARTs), the best means of obtaining high-quality data to determine optimal treatment regimes, and will present some new findings on the purported benefits of such trials from a case study involving the Clinical Antipsychotic Trials of Invervention Effectiveness (CATIE) Schizophrenia study.
