Improving Drug Development Using Patient Adherence Data in Clinical Trials CDDS Workshop -
Co-sponsored by: Center for Drug Development Science University of California, San Francisco


Facing the Critical Challenge of Patient Adherence to Long-term Therapeutic Regimens

Data from trials and practice show that ambulatory patients frequently underdose, either by: never starting dosing, omitting scheduled doses, or premature cessation of dosing. Routine methods fail to detect most of these errors. Yet variable dosing histories are a major source of variance in drug response, confounding the estimation and interpretation of all dose/time-dependent trial outcomes, eg, PK parameters, dose-dependent efficacy, regimen definition, dose-dependent toxicity. Fully analyzed dosing histories can substantially upgrade learning from all trials.
