Objectives
The Quantitative Decision-making Special Interest Group (QDM SIG) was formed in October 2017. It is a group of statisticians from industry and academia, with experience and interests in statistical methods for quantitative decision-making in drug development.
The objectives of the SIG are:
- To share (anonymized) case studies of how quantitative decision-making methods are being used within pharmaceutical companies, for decisions at the trial level, at the development level and at the portfolio level
- To perform literature reviews, discuss and make recommendations on existing methodologies in terms of approach and interpretation
- To develop new methodologies or practices where needed
- To promote the role of the statistician in supporting decision-making in pharmaceutical companies and/or other stakeholders
- To propose trainings, public meetings, open-source software, or publications to share methods and experience and facilitate the use of methods by others
- To increase the visibility and impact of quantitative decision-making within pharmaceutical companies
