Role of Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence in Clinical Trials
Artificial intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) is shaping the future of humanity across nearly every industry. You probably interact with AI daily and don’t even realize it. Many people still associate AI/ML with science-fiction dystopias, but that characterization is waning as AI develops and becomes more commonplace in our daily lives. Today, AI is a household name – and sometimes even a household presence (Hi, Alexa! Hey Google!). Over the last several years, the use of AI in the pharma and biomedical industry has gone from science fiction to science fact. The success rate of clinical trials has been on raise since 2015 (Nature’ 2022). Researchers in academia and the pharmaceutical industry are turning to AI to increase the success rate in Clinical Trials. Fueled by the rapidly increasing amounts of medical data that are available to researchers, including those provided by electronic health records (EHR) and wearable devices, powered by ML & AI have the potential to save billions of dollars, to speed up medical advances and to expand access to experimental treatments. Role of AI & ML in Pharmaceutical Industry, specifically focusing at multiple levels in Clinical Trials varies from optimizing the clinical trial design, patient enrichment and recruitment, site selection, patient monitoring & adherence and pharmacovigilance. In this two day workshop, we focus on ML & AI in Clinical Trials and try to give an idea on how AI & ML are reshaping the clinical trials. ML & AI adds value across the spectrum of clinical trials, from preclinical drug discovery to pre-trial planning through study execution to data management and analysis.

Deep dive into Regulatory submissions – role of Programmer / Statistician
Regulatory submissions are very important milestones for pharmaceutical organizations/sponsors post completion of analysis and reporting of any clinical trial that documents the safety and efficacy data of their new innovative medicinal products. In order to accelerate and shorten the time from lab to market and bring clinical benefits to patients faster, while ensuring patient safety and optimizing research investments, we require quality regulatory submissions. This would also speed up regulatory agencies’ review, evaluation and approval of new products. eCTD (electronic Common Technical Document) is a standard required format to submit all the clinical research and development data of a new investigational product to the Health Authorities. In addition to individual clinical study reports, sponsors require to pool safety and efficacy data from individual clinical studies, prepare, and submit Integrated Summary of Safety (ISS) and Integrated Summary of Efficacy (ISE) reports into CTD for product benefit-risk evaluation. After a regulatory submission, there are usually Health Authority Questions (HAQs) on data and sponsors may need to explore/investigate individual or pooled study data, reports and provide responses quickly back to the HA. After review of submitted dossier, the HA may decide to further evaluate the product through Advisory Committee (AdCom) meeting discussions before their decision on product approval. Sponsors may have to prepare additional exploratory analyses for any potential questions from the AdCom meetings. For any regulatory submission, statistical programmers and statisticians play key roles in the preparation of the submission deliverables and also planning and generating ISS/ISE reports, responding to HA questions and performing exploratory analyses for AdCom meetings. This workshop will aim to discuss various statistical activities required for regulatory submissions in multiple therapeutic/disease areas with case studies/examples, including roles and responsibilities of statisticians and statistical programmers. This will also delve into common challenges in planning and generating the reports including electronic submission requirement per CDISC compliance.

Workshop on Python Language
Python as a high-level programming language is a fast growing programming tool. The main strength of Python is its ability to connect with other software as well as hardware modules. It is especially powerful in its implementation of machine learning modules and handling big data. Its usefulness and popularity can be assessed through the available 119948 additional packages which almost ensure that a beginner will rarely need to write detailed codes. Python being open source is free and taking a decision to learn or switch to it is only a matter of adaptation and has no cost implications. Python specialized packages such as clinical_trials, scikit-survival 0.3, and lifelines are handy for using survival analysis methods. Bayesian analysis in Python is carried out using packages such as BayesPy and pymc3. This interactive workshop will be conducted by Dr. Vikram Pudi from IIIT, Hyderabad and Mr. V Ashwin from GSK, Bangalore. The workshop will begin with an introduction to basics of Python and move to concepts such as, for loops, functions, if-while, lists, trees, arrays and dictionaries etc. The workshop will be interspersed with examples and exercises which are generic in nature and some which are from the clinical domain. At the end of the workshop, end users should have a good understanding of the potential of Python and how it can be used in some of the day to activities such as validation, simple number crunching besides others.

Adaptive Designs
Adaptive designs play an increasingly important role in clinical drug development.Such designs use accumulating data of an ongoing trial to guide how to modify design aspects without undermining the validity and integrity of the trial. Such designs have the potential to increase the efficiency of the clinical study while enhancing the overall probability of success of a compound via a better optimization of the dose, endpoint or the patient population that is most likely to benefit. This workshop will lay out the key statistical and operational principles related to the use of adaptive designs and describe the key types of adaptations that commonly used in the biopharmaceutical industry. Examples of the application of adaptive designs in the early exploratory and late stage confirmatory stage will be provided.
