Overview:
In a fixed-sample clinical trial, data on all individuals are analyzed at the end of the study. In contrast, a group sequential trial provides for interim analyses before completion of the trial. Thus, a group sequential trial is useful for preventing unnecessary exposure of patients to an unsafe new drug or to a placebo treatment if a new drug shows significant improvement. This paper reviews basic concepts of group sequential analysis and introduces two SAS/STAT procedures: the SEQDESIGN and SEQTEST procedures. Both procedures are experimental in SAS 9.2.
