Neurocognitive function: an emerging surrogate endpoint for neuro-oncology trials.
Pediatric neuro-oncologists are familiar with the challenge that their potentially curative treatments may come at a high price because they may improve survival, but not without developmental delays and persistent neuropsychological sequelae in a significant proportion of patients. The view that the radiological determination of response or stable disease is a sufficient parameter to ascertain...
متن کاملSurrogate endpoint biomarkers for cervical cancer chemopreventive trials.
Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) represents a spectrum of epithelial changes that provide an excellent model for developing chemopreventive interventions for cervical cancer. Possible drug effect surrogate endpoint biomarkers are dependent on the agent under investigation. Published and preliminary clinical reports suggest retinoids and carotenoids are effective chemopreventive agents f...
متن کاملNeoadjuvant Rectal (NAR) Score: a New Surrogate Endpoint in Rectal Cancer Clinical Trials
The conduct of clinical trials in colorectal cancer has historically relied upon endpoints such as disease-free (DFS) or overall survival (OS). While ideal, these endpoints require long-term follow-up, thus contributing to a slow pace of scientific progress in clinical research. Identification of short-term endpoints to serve as surrogates for DFS and OS would enable more rapid determination of...
متن کاملSurrogate endpoint biomarkers and their modulation in cervical chemoprevention trials.
BACKGROUND Surrogate endpoint biomarkers (SEBs) are used as intermediate indicators of a reduction in cancer incidence in chemoprevention studies. SEBs should be expressed differentially in normal and high risk tissue; appear at a well defined stage of carcinogenesis; be studied with reasonable sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy; and be modulated in chemoprevention trials. The concept of SE...
متن کاملDeveloping a conceptual framework for an evaluation system for the NIAID HIV/AIDS clinical trials networks
Globally, health research organizations are called upon to re-examine their policies and practices to more efficiently and effectively address current scientific and social needs, as well as increasing public demands for accountability.Through a case study approach, the authors examine an effort undertaken by the National Institute of Allergy & Infectious Diseases (part of the National Institut...
