Overview
For the most part the planning of clinical trials is based on considerations of the power of a test of a given alternative hypothesis based on ideas introduced by Neyman and Pearson in 1933. As early as 1939, Jeffreys pointed out that if the true value was unknown, so was the power. Jeffreys suggested that to understand the true power of a study the conditional power values should be averaged with respect to their prior probabilities, an unconditional power. This idea was taken up in the 1980’s by Spiegelhalter and colleagues and in the early 2000s by O’Hagan and Stevens who introduced the concept of assurance. All of this work uses unconditional as opposed to conditional probabilities.
The course is based on a book with the same title in the Chapman Hall/CRC Biostatistics Series to appear in May 2022. All participants for this course will receive a copy of the book.
Topics covered include:
• Expected Power, Average Power (AP), Predicted Power, Probability of Success and Assurance for a Simple Normal Model with Known Variance
Bounds on AP and Assurance
Sample Size for a Given AP/Assurance and Normalized Assurance.
Applying Assurance to a Series of Studies
Assurance for a Clinical Trial with a Single Interim Analysis
Non-Inferiority Trials
• AP in Non-Normal Settings – Unknown variance, Binary Data, Survival Analysis
• Bayesian Power (BP)
Bounds on BP
Sample Size for a Given BP/Normalized BP
Posterior Conditional Success Distributions
Prior Distributions for Power and sample Size
• Interim Predictions and Links to AP
• AP with Multiple Decision Criteria – Normal Model with Known Variance
Bounds on AP and Assurance
Generalized Assurance
Bayesian Approach to Multiple Decision Criteria.
Posterior Conditional GO/NOGO/Pause/Distributions
• Surety and Assurance in Estimation
An Alternative to Power in sample Size Determination
Unconditional Sample Sizing Based on CI width

Upcoming Events
Joint PSI/EFSPI Visualisation SIG 'Wonderful Wednesday' Webinars
Our monthly webinar explores examples of innovative data visualisations relevant to our day to day work. Each month a new dataset is provided from a clinical trial or other relevant example, and participants are invited to submit a graphic that communicates interesting and relevant characteristics of the data.
Topic: R Package Basics.
Our monthly webinar series allows attendees to gain practical knowledge and skills in open-source coding and tools, with a focus on applications in the pharmaceutical industry. This month’s session, “R Package Basics,” will introduce the fundamentals of working with R packages—covering how to install, load, and manage them effectively to support data analysis and reproducible research. The session will provide a solid starting point, clarify common misconceptions, and offer valuable resources for continued learning.
Date: Ongoing 6 month cycle beginning late April/early May 2026
Are you a member of PSI looking to further your career or help develop others - why not sign up to the PSI Mentoring scheme? You can expand your network, improve your leadership skills and learn from more senior colleagues in the industry.
PSI Book Club Lunch and Learn: Communicating with Clarity and Confidence
If you have read Ros Atkins’ book The Art of Explanation or want to listen to the BBC’s ‘Communicator in Chief’, you are invited to join the PSI Book Club Lunch and Learn, to discuss the content and application with the author, Ros Atkins. Having written the book within the context of the news industry, Ros is keen to hear how we have applied the ideas as statisticians within drug development and clinical trials. There will be dedicated time during the webinar to ASK THE AUTHOR any questions – don’t miss out on this exclusive PSI Book Club event!
Haven’t read the book yet? Pick up a copy today and join us.
Explanation - identifying and communicating what we want to say - is described as an art, in the title of his book. However, the creativity comes from Ros’ discernment in identifying and describing a clear step-by-step process to follow and practice. Readers can learn Ros’ rules, developed and polished throughout his career as a journalist, to help communicate complex written or spoken information clearly.
PSI Training Course: Effective Leadership – the keys to growing your leadership capabilities
This course will consist of three online half-day workshops. The first will be aimed at building trust, the backbone of leadership and a key to becoming effective. This is key to building a solid foundation.
The second will be on improving communication as a technical leader. This workshop will focus on communication strategies for different stakeholders and will involve tips on effective communication and how to develop the skills of active listening, coaching and what improv can teach us about good communication.
The final workshop will bring these two components together to help leaders become more influential. This will also focus on how to use Steven Covey’s 7-Habits, in particular Habits 4, 5 and 6, which are called the habits of communication.
The workshops will be interactive, allowing you to practice the concepts discussed. There will be plenty of time for questions and discussion. There will also be reflective time where you can think about what you are learning and how you might experiment with it.
