Objective: Study objective (clinical question of interest) as written in the trial protocol | |
Estimand: Succinctly describes the estimand attributes outlined in more detail below | |
Treatment: Treatments or interventions of interest | |
ESTIMAND | ANALYSIS |
---|---|
Target population | Analysis set |
Population targeted by the clinical question of interest | Participants within the clinical trial contributing to estimation of the population-level summary measure b |
Variable | Outcome measure |
Measure obtained for each individual required to address the clinical question of interest | How the variable will be determined for analysis |
Handling of intercurrent events | Handling of missing data |
(Repeat for each intercurrent event) |
Imputation approach for missing data and underlying assumptions
Sensitivity analyses: Different ways of handling missing data |
Population-level summary measure | Analysis approach |
Summary measure for the variable that serves as a basis for treatment effect, without the treatment or for comparison between treatments |
How the statistic (estimator) will be calculated
Sensitivity analyses: Different assumptions/methods for calculating the estimator |
Strategies defined in E9 (R1) include Treatment Policy, While on Treatment, Composite, Principal Stratum, and Hypothetical
If there are multiple analysis groups (e.g. comparison groups in multi-arm trials), the groups can be defined here.
