Biomarker-Driven Randomization to Target Subjects
What is Biomarker-Driven Randomization to Target Subjects? Biomarker-driven randomization to target subjects is a clinical trial design that assigns patients to different treatment groups based on the presence or absence of specific biomarkers that may predict treatment response.
What Are The Benefits of Biomarker-Driven Randomization to Target Subjects?
- Increases the likelihood of demonstrating treatment efficacy
- Reduces the number of patients needed to demonstrate treatment efficacy
- Maximizes the benefit-to-risk ratio of the treatment
What Are The Disadvantages of Biomarker-Driven Randomization to Target Subjects?
- Limited generalizability
- Increased complexity, cost, and time of trial
- Increased risk of false positives
- Limited availability and access for all patients
