Applied Surrogate Endpoint Evaluation Methods with SAS and R by Ariel Alonso (Maastricht University, Maastricht, Limburg, The Netherlands)


Summary

When a true endpoint is difficult to use because of such factors as long follow-up times or prohibitive cost, it is sometimes possible to use a surrogate endpoint that can be measured in a more convenient or cost-effective way. This book focuses on the use of surrogate endpoint evaluation methods in practice, using SAS and R.

Applied Surrogate Endpoint Evaluation Methods with SAS and R Summary

Applied Surrogate Endpoint Evaluation Methods with SAS and R by Ariel Alonso (Maastricht University, Maastricht, Limburg, The Netherlands)

An important factor that affects the duration, complexity and cost of a clinical trial is the endpoint used to study the treatment's efficacy. When a true endpoint is difficult to use because of such factors as long follow-up times or prohibitive cost, it is sometimes possible to use a surrogate endpoint that can be measured in a more convenient or cost-effective way. This book focuses on the use of surrogate endpoint evaluation methods in practice, using SAS and R.

Applied Surrogate Endpoint Evaluation Methods with SAS and R Reviews

This is a timely text. The number of published studies using surrogate endpoints has increased dramatically since the early work of the 1980s; however, there is a dearth of available texts or software on this topic. Anyone with an interest in surrogate endpoint evaluation would benefit from this text.
