|

Pharmaceuticals are a frequently discussed aspect of health care cost management.
|
||||
Their development is dictated by scientific and regulatory hurdles
|
||||
including passing clinical trials
|
||||
(\cite{noauthor_fda_nodate}),
|
||||
while their market is characterized by strategic competition and ambiguous
|
||||
patent protection
|
||||
(\cite{van_der_gronde_addressing_2017}).
|
||||
|
||||
\vspace{12pt}
|

|

This research investigates the ways by which market conditions
|
||||
affect clinical trial completion.

The FDA requires clinical trials before approving new drug compounds
|
||||
\begin{itemize}
|
||||
\item Pre-registered design
|
||||
\item Updated regularly on clinicaltrials.gov
|
||||
\item Often requires an oversight board.
|
||||
\item Goal is to prove efficacy and safety of a compound/dosage/route.
|
||||
\item A new drug candidate (NDC) must complete 3 phases of clinical trials before approval.
|
||||
\item Phases are reviewed with FDA.
|
||||
\item Not all clinical trials are for new drugs.

\frametitle{Literature Highlights}
|
||||
\begin{itemize}
|
||||
\item \cite{van_der_gronde_addressing_2017}:
|
||||
High level synthesis of overall discussion regarding drug costs.
|
||||
Both academic and non-academic sources.
|
||||
\item \cite{hwang_failure_2016}:
|
||||
Answered the question "Why do late-stage (phase III) trials fail?"
|
||||
Found that efficacy, safety, and competition reasons accounted for
|
||||
57\%, 17\%, and 22\% respectively.
|
||||
\item \cite{abrantes-metz_pharmaceutical_2004}:
|
||||
Described how drugs progress through the 3 phases of clinical trials
|
||||
and correlations between various trial characteristics and the
|
||||
clinical trial failures.
|
||||
\item \cite{khmelnitskaya_competition_2021}:
|
||||
Modeled clinical trial life-cycle of drugs, found method to separate
|
||||
scientific from competitive reasons for failure to progress to the
|
||||
next phase.

In contrast to previous work looking at multiple phases of trials,

I seek to figure out what causes individual trials to fail.

\begin{itemize}
|

\item How do the competitors on the market affect clinical trial completion?
|

\item How is this effect moderated by the enrollment of participants?

What does a \textif{Completed} trial look like?
|

\begin{enumerate}
|

\item Study sponsor comes up with design
|

Thus ClinicalTrials.gov becomes an (append only) repository of
|

the ``current'' status of clincal trials.
|
||||
|
||||
As it is designed to help faciltate enrollment in clinical trials,
|
||||
the record includes important information such as
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{itemize}
|
||||
\item drugs
|
||||
\item study arms
|
||||
\item conditions
|
||||
\item expected and final enrollment figures
|
||||
\item current status
|
||||
\end{itemize}
|
||||
|

ClinicalTrials.gov also reports the history from previous
|

updates.

Study Sponsors Decide to start a Phase 3 trial and whether to terminate it.

\\
|

They ask themselves:
|
||||
\begin{itemize}
|
||||
\item Do safety incidents require terminating a trial?
|
||||
\item Do efficacy results indicate the trial is worth continuing?
|
||||
\item Is recruiting sufficient to achieve our results and contain costs?
|
||||
\item Do expectations about future returns justify our expenditures?
|
||||
\end{itemize}
|
||||
|
||||
They plan their enrollment considering
|
||||
\begin{itemize}
|

\item Total population affected
|

\item Likely participant response rates
|

\item Their network of clinicians

Two potential causes of trial termination include
|

\begin{enumerate}
|

\item Alternative (competitor) treatments exist
|

\begin{itemize}
|
||||
\item reduces future profitability.
|

\item reduces incentives to enroll as participants.
|
||||
\end{itemize}
|
||||
\item It can be difficult to recruit patients
|
||||
\begin{itemize}
|
||||
\item Are there few patients?
|

\item Are potential participants choosing other alternatives?

\begin{block}{$d$-separation}
|

A set $S$ of nodes blocks a path $p$ on a DAG if either
|
||||
\begin{enumerate}
|
||||
\item $p$ contains at least one arrow-emitting node in $S$
|
||||
\item $p$ contains at least one collision node $c$ that is outside $S$
|
||||
and has no descendants in $S$.
|
||||
\end{enumerate}
|

If $S$ blocks all paths from X to Y, then it is said to ``$d$-separate''
|

$X$ and $Y$, and then $X \perp Y | S$.
|

\end{block}
|

\begin{block}{Back-Door Criterion}
|

A set $S$ of covariates is admissible as controls on the
|

causal relationship $X \rightarrow Y$ if:
|
||||
\begin{enumerate}
|
||||
\item No element of $S$ is a descendant of $X$
|

\item The elements of $S$ d-separate all paths from $X$ to $Y$ that include

%
|
||||
The following linking process was used:
|
||||
\begin{enumerate}
|
||||
\item AACT trials to snapshots (internal ID)
|
||||
\item AACT trials to ICD-10 (hand match)
|
||||
\item ICD-10 to IHME (IHME)
|
||||
\item Snapshots to drug brands (RxNorm/RxNav/MeSh, SPL)
|
||||
\item AACT to USP DC alternates (RxNorm, USP DC, hand match)
|
||||
\end{enumerate}
|
||||
|
||||
\end{frame}
|
||||
%-------------------------------
|

\begin{frame}
|

\frametitle{Data used}
|
||||
The following data points were used.
|
||||
\begin{itemize}
|
||||
\item elapsed duration
|
||||
\item enrollment status
|
||||
\item asinh(brands with identical ingredients)
|
||||
\item asinh(brands in USP-DC category)
|
||||
\item asinh(high sdi DALY estimate)
|
||||
\item asinh(high-medium sdi DALY estimate)
|
||||
\item asinh(medium sdi DALY estimate)
|
||||
\item asinh(low-medium sdi DALY estimate)
|
||||
\item asinh(low sdi DALY estimate)
|
||||
\end{itemize}
|
||||
The asinh operator was used because it parallels $\text{ln}(x)$ for
|
||||
large values of $x$ but also handles $\text{asinh}(0)=0$.

\begin{itemize}

\item Final Status: Measured from AACT - status when trial is over.
|

\item Competitors on Market: Measured by the number of drugs
|
||||
\begin{itemize}
|
||||
\item with same active ingredients (at the time of the snapshot)
|
||||
\item sharing the USP DC category and class (in 2023)
|
||||
\end{itemize}
|
||||
\end{itemize}
|

Here are the actual measures of the adjustment set
|

\begin{itemize}
|

\item Enrollment: Measured by enrollment status at the snapshot level.
|
||||
\item Elapsed Duration: Measured at snapshot level
|
||||
by $\frac{\text{Current Date} - \text{Start Date}}{\text{Planned Completion Date} - \text{Start Date}}$
|
||||
\item Population Measures
|
||||
\begin{itemize}
|
||||
\item IHME Global Disease Burden: DALYs, spread over 5 levels of the Social Development Index
|
||||
\end{itemize}
|
||||
\item Beliefs about safety \& efficacy: Restricted to Phase 3 trials.
|

\item Disease Type: Hierarchal parameters in model
|

\end{itemize}

\begin{itemize}
|

\item There were no diverging transitions.
|
||||
\item There were 15,000 transitions that exceeded max treedepth.
|
||||
Sampling efficiency is poor.
|
||||
\item All chains had low Bayesian Fraction of Missing Information.
|
||||
Some areas of the distribution were poorly explored.
|
||||
\item R-hat = $1.23$, ideal is around 1, chains did not mix well.
|
||||
\item Bulk and Tail Effective Sample sizes were low,
|
||||
suggesting mean and variance/quantile estimates will be unreliable.
