All students of pharmaceutical sciences and clinical research need a solid knowledge and understanding of the nature, methods, application, and importance of statistics.Introduction to Statistics in Pharmaceutical Clinical Trials is an ideal introduction to statistics presented in the context of clinical trials conducted during pharmaceutical drug development. This novel approach both teaches the computational steps needed to conduct analyses and provides a conceptual understanding of how these analyses provide information that forms the rational basis for decision making throughout the drug development process.This textbook conveys: why and how data are collected in clinical studies, how these data are summarized and analyzed, what the results mean in the context of the clinical research question, how the results are communicated to regulatory agencies and to the scientific and medical communities. Introduction to Statistics in Pharmaceutical Clinical Trials is designed primarily for students of pharmacy, clinical research, and allied health professionals. It will also be invaluable to professionals entering the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and contract research organization industries who wish to gain a broader understanding of study design, research methodology, and statistical analysis and interpretation in clinical trials.
