    When do we need clinical endpoint adjudication in clinical trials?

    No full text
    Clinical endpoint adjudication (CEA) is a standardized process for assessment of safety and efficacy of pharmacologic or device therapies in clinical trials. CEA plays a key role in many large clinical trials with the aim of achieving consistency and accuracy of the study results, by applying independent and blinded evaluation of suspected clinical events reported by investigators. However, due to high costs there are different opinions regarding the use of central adjudication versus more simplified strategies or site-based assessments and whether the final results differ significantly. There is a lack of scientific evaluation of different adjudication strategies, and more knowledge is needed on the optimal adjudication process and how to achieve the best cost-effectiveness. New methodologies using national registry data and artificial intelligence may challenge the traditional adjudication strategy and could potentially reduce cost considerably with a similar result. Further research and evidence in this field of clinical trials methodology are essential

    This time I’m (not) voting: how campaign factors affect European citizens’ turnout in EP elections

    No full text
    Turnout in European Parliament elections declined in every vote held between 1979 and 2014. Ahead of the 2019 elections, the EU launched an initiative, ‘This time I’m voting’, in the hope of raising public interest. While turnout did increase in the 2019 contest, it remains an open question as to whether such campaign efforts help mobilise citizens. Drawing on a new study, Franziska Marquart, Andreas C. Goldberg and Claes H. de Vreese assess the role of individuals’ passive exposure to and active engagement with the 2019 campaign, finding that not all campaign efforts helped to increase turnout, with some even serving to demobilise the European electorate

    Lessons from platelet inhibition and patient outcomes

    Purpose of review Ticagrelor is a new, direct acting, reversibly binding P2Y12 receptor antagonist with more potent inhibition of platelets than clopidogrel and which does not require metabolic activation. It was compared with clopidogrel, on a background of the standard of care in a randomized trial in the Platelet Inhibition and Patient Outcomes (PLATO) study, on patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The purpose was to evaluate the efficacy and safety results from the global, prospective trial in a broad population [ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) patients] with ACS. Recent findings The main findings were a significant reduction of the primary outcome (death from vascular causes/myocardial infarction/stroke) with ticagrelor versus clopidogrel [9.8 versus 11.7% (hazard ratio 0.84; 95% confidence interval: 0.77-0.92); P&lt;0.001] without a significant increase in PLATO-defined major bleeding (11.6 versus 11.2%, respectively; P = 0.43), but a higher occurrence of noncoronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) related major bleeding (4.5 versus 3.8%; P = 0.026). In addition, there was a significant reduction in vascular mortality (4.0 versus 5.1%; P = 0.001). The findings were consistent in all subgroups, such as for STEMI, NSTEMI, planned invasive or noninvasive strategy, diabetes, renal function, and CABG. Summary Among patients with an ACS with or without ST-segment elevation, treatment with ticagrelor, as compared with clopidogrel, significantly reduced the rate of death from vascular causes, myocardial infarction, or stroke without an increase in the rate of overall major bleeding but with an increase in the rate of nonprocedure-related bleeding.</p
