BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Intravenous alteplase (rtPA) remains the only approved treatment for acute ischemic stroke, but its use remains limited. In a previous pilot dose-escalation study, intravenous tenecteplase showed promise as a potentially safer alternative. Therefore, a Phase IIB clinical trial was begun to (1) c…

Efficient communication is a challenge for the many operating components of a multicenter randomized clinical trial. Traditional management theory states that communications generally flow along a path established by a hierarchical organizational structure. A multicenter clinical trial does not fit traditional organiza…

This article describes a computer simulation methodology to calculate conditional power for comparing two arbitrary survival curves as an aid in deciding whether or not to extend a clinical trial. The method is a modification of that by Halpern and Brown, which computes unconditional power for comparing arbitrary survi…

Two 6-month daily regimens of chemotherapy for smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis were compared in Tanzania. Both had the same initial 2-month intensive phase of streptomycin, isoniazid, rifampicin, and pyrazinamide, and the continuation phase was either thiacetazone plus isoniazid or isoniazid alone. All patients w…

A large controlled clinical trial with the admission of 1005 patients was carried out using tamoxifen as adjuvant treatment for women with operable carcinoma of the breast. Results were analysed for the first 906 evaluable patients randomised up to December 1981. After mastectomy premenopausal women were randomised to…
