White Papers Project 3 white papers finalized – Vital Signs, ECGs, Labs - Central Tendency Finalized in October 2013 – Non-Compartmental Pharmacokinetics Finalized in March 2014 – Demographics, Disposition, and Medications Finalized October 2014

White Papers Project 2 white papers out for broad review – Vital Signs, ECGs, Labs – Outliers/Shifts – Adverse Events – Comments due 16 January white papers in progress – Hepatotoxicity – QT Studies 2 white papers planned – Analyses and Displays Associated with Questionnaire Data – Analyses and Displays for Events of Special Interest

Example Displays

Measurements after stopping medication – Generally exclude, even for drugs with a long half-life Unplanned measurements – Generally exclude for central tendency analyses/displays, include for scatterplot, shifts Units – May need both SI and CN units P-values and confidence intervals – Did not take a position, but provided a discussion Example Recommendations

White Papers – Review draft white papers, spread the word to elicit additional reviewers (include your medical colleagues) – Spread the word on the final white papers – Implement the recommendations! – Need medical writing support Help Wanted
