"The unbearable lightness" of the primary end point in clinical trials.
In this Perspective, I discuss the limitations of a soft primary endpoint that is used in some of the recent randomized phase II/III clinical trials. Unfortunately, many clinicians and investigators do not interpret the data critically to recognize the limitations of such findings. I advise against over-interpreting the effects of an intervention on a soft primary endpoint.
期刊介绍:
Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry: An International Journal for Chemical Biology in Health and Disease publishes original research papers and short communications in all areas of the biochemical sciences, emphasizing novel findings relevant to the biochemical basis of cellular function and disease processes, as well as the mechanics of action of hormones and chemical agents. Coverage includes membrane transport, receptor mechanism, immune response, secretory processes, and cytoskeletal function, as well as biochemical structure-function relationships in the cell.
In addition to the reports of original research, the journal publishes state of the art reviews. Specific subjects covered by Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry include cellular metabolism, cellular pathophysiology, enzymology, ion transport, lipid biochemistry, membrane biochemistry, molecular biology, nuclear structure and function, and protein chemistry.
