Survival analysis for AdVerse events with VarYing follow-up times (SAVVY): summary of findings and assessment of existing guidelines

open access: yesTrials
Background The SAVVY project aims to improve the analyses of adverse events (AEs) in clinical trials through the use of survival techniques appropriately dealing with varying follow-up times and competing events (CEs).

Two‐stage randomized clinical trials with a right‐censored endpoint: Comparison of frequentist and Bayesian adaptive designs

open access: yesStatistics in Medicine
Adaptive randomized clinical trials are of major interest when dealing with a time‐to‐event outcome in a prolonged observation window. No consensus exists either to define stopping boundaries or to combine values or test statistics in the terminal analysis in the case of a frequentist design and sample size adaptation.

ipcwswitch: An R package for inverse probability of censoring weighting with an application to switches in clinical trials

open access: yesComputers in Biology and Medicine, 2019
In randomized clinical trials (RCT), the analysis is based on the intent-to-treat principle to avoid any selection bias in the constitution of groups. However, estimates of overall survival can be biased when significant crossover occurs because the separation of randomized groups is lost.

Additive-multiplicative hazards regression models for interval-censored semi-competing risks data with missing intermediate events

open access: yesBMC Medical Research Methodology, 2019
Background In clinical trials and survival analysis, participants may be excluded from the study due to withdrawal, which is often referred to as lost-to-follow-up (LTF). It is natural to argue that a disease would be censored due to death; however, when

HIV-1 RNA levels and antiretroviral drug resistance in blood and non-blood compartments from HIV-1-infected men and women enrolled in AIDS clinical trials group study A5077.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
BackgroundDetectable HIV-1 in body compartments can lead to transmission and antiretroviral resistance. Although sex differences in viral shedding have been demonstrated, mechanisms and magnitude are unclear.
