Abstract Direct comparisons of the effectiveness of the numerous novel therapies in the diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (DLBCL) treatment landscape in a range of head‐to‐head randomized phase 3 trials would be time‐consuming and costly. Comparative effectiveness studies using real‐world data (RWD) represent a complementary approach.

Mediation Analyses for the Effect of Antibodies in Vaccination [PDF]
We review standard mediation assumptions as they apply to identifying antibody effects in a randomized vaccine trial and propose new study designs to allow identification of an estimand that was previously unidentifiable. For these mediation analyses, we partition the total ratio effect (one minus the vaccine effect) from a randomized vaccine trial ...
