Predicting Patient Drop-Out in Clinical Trials: A First Step Toward Personalized Engagement Strategies

October 30, 2024

Objective: Patient non-adherence and drop-out significantly extend the duration and cost of clinical trials. A predictive tool identifying patients likely to drop out could enhance clinical trial management through targeted and personalized engagement strategies. We aimed to develop such a tool using predictive modeling on data from two studies on schizophrenia and dry eye.  Design:

Prediction of the response to repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation of the motor cortex in peripheral neuropathic pain and validation of a new algorithm

September 25, 2024

Abstract: Motor cortex repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (M1-rTMS) induces analgesic effects in neuropathic pain, but not all patients are good responders, and no clinical predictors of the response have been identified. The present study aimed to develop and validate a simple and easy-to-use predictive algorithm for the individual response to M1-rTMS in peripheral neuropathic pain

Self-Training in Pain Assessment as a Mediator of the Prognostic Performance of Pain Variability

July 29, 2024

Background and Aims Baseline Pain Variability (PV) is often cited as a key predictor of placebo response (1-3). This variability can be caused both by actual fluctuating pain levels and by an inability to accurately assess one’s pain. Some suggest that this latter source may indicate patients more prone to contextual influence and thus more

MODELING THE EXPECTATIONS FOR IMPROVEMENT IN OSTEOARTHRITIS TRIALS TO ENHANCE MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES 

April 12, 2024

Objective: The expectations of improvement among subjects participating in a Randomized Controlled Trials (RCT) are one of the features most frequently associated with the placebo response. Consequently, it becomes a pivotal factor for understanding treatment effect, particularly in chronic pain RCTs such as Osteoarthritis (OA). There are multiple techniques to account for these expectations in studies,

Using aggregated site features computed with the MPsQ to allow a better monitoring of sites in clinical trials

November 3, 2023

Using aggregated site features computed with the MPsQ to allow a better monitoring of sites in clinical trials Objective:   The MPsQ is an assessment characterizing the profile of the subjects participating to a Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) to predict their behaviors in the study (placebo response, adherence, …). This analysis aimed to determine whether individual responses collected through the MPsQ could
