Clinical Trial Analysis in Action

See how research teams are using Sourcetable to accelerate their statistical analysis workflows

Oncology Phase III Efficacy Analysis

A multinational cancer trial with 1,200 patients needed to analyze overall survival as the primary endpoint. Using Sourcetable, the team created Kaplan-Meier curves stratified by biomarker status, performed Cox proportional hazards regression with 15 covariates, and generated forest plots for subgroup analyses—all completed in 2 hours instead of 2 weeks.

Cardiovascular Safety Monitoring

A Phase II cardiac device trial required real-time safety monitoring with pre-specified stopping rules. The system automatically flagged when the composite safety endpoint exceeded the boundary (3 events vs. expected 1.2), triggered DSMB notifications, and generated safety run charts updated daily with new patient data.

Pediatric PK/PD Analysis

A rare disease study in children needed population pharmacokinetic modeling with sparse sampling. The platform handled mixed-effects modeling, generated individual and population parameter estimates, created diagnostic plots, and simulated dosing scenarios for different age groups—critical for determining pediatric dosing recommendations.

Adaptive Design Interim Analysis

A Phase IIb dose-finding study used group sequential design with two interim analyses. The system calculated conditional power, performed futility analysis, generated recommendations for sample size re-estimation, and maintained blinding throughout the adaptive modifications.

Biomarker Validation Study

A companion diagnostic development required ROC analysis, sensitivity/specificity calculations, and positive/negative predictive values across different cut-points. The analysis included bootstrapped confidence intervals, cross-validation procedures, and comparison of multiple biomarker models.

Multi-Regional Regulatory Submission

A global Phase III program needed consistent analyses across FDA, EMA, and PMDA requirements. The platform generated region-specific efficacy tables, safety summaries, and statistical appendices while maintaining consistency in the core statistical methodology and handling different regulatory preferences.

Advanced Statistical Methods for Clinical Trials

Clinical trials demand sophisticated statistical approaches that go far beyond basic hypothesis testing. Here's how Sourcetable handles the complex methodologies that regulatory agencies expect:

Survival Analysis and Time-to-Event

When analyzing time-to-event endpoints like overall survival or progression-free survival, traditional spreadsheet tools fall short. Sourcetable automatically handles censored observations, generates publication-quality Kaplan-Meier curves, and performs log-rank tests with stratification factors. Need to adjust for baseline covariates? Cox proportional hazards regression is just a natural language query away: "Create a Cox model for overall survival adjusting for age, gender, and ECOG status".

Mixed-Effects Models for Longitudinal Data

Patient measurements over time create correlated data that requires specialized handling. Whether you're analyzing repeated laboratory values, patient-reported outcomes, or pharmacokinetic profiles, Sourcetable's mixed-effects modeling capabilities account for within-patient correlation while handling missing data patterns that inevitably occur in clinical trials.

Multiplicity Adjustments

Multiple comparisons are the norm in clinical trials—multiple doses, multiple endpoints, multiple subgroups. The platform automatically applies appropriate correction methods (Bonferroni, Holm, Benjamini-Hochberg) and implements complex hierarchical testing procedures that maintain overall Type I error control while maximizing statistical power.

Adaptive Design Support

Modern trials increasingly use adaptive designs that modify aspects of the study based on interim data. Sourcetable supports group sequential designs with proper alpha spending functions, sample size re-estimation procedures, and dose-escalation algorithms while maintaining the integrity of statistical inference.

Meeting Regulatory Standards

Regulatory compliance isn't just about getting the statistics right—it's about demonstrating that your analysis methods are appropriate, well-documented, and reproducible. Here's how Sourcetable ensures your submissions meet the highest standards:

21 CFR Part 11 Compliance

Every analysis step is logged with user identification, timestamps, and audit trails. Electronic signatures ensure data integrity, and version control prevents unauthorized modifications. The system maintains complete documentation from raw data through final results, satisfying FDA requirements for electronic records.

ICH E9 Statistical Principles

The platform enforces ICH E9 guidelines by requiring pre-specification of analysis methods, maintaining separation between planned and exploratory analyses, and documenting any deviations from the original Statistical Analysis Plan. Missing data handling follows ICH E9(R1) estimand framework principles.

CDISC Standards Integration

Import data directly from CDISC SDTM domains and generate analysis datasets following ADaM standards. The system automatically creates ADSL (subject-level), ADTTE (time-to-event), and ADLB (laboratory) datasets with proper variable naming, labeling, and metadata.
