SUMMARY:Tuberculosis: vaccines\, diagnostics and experience
DESCRIPTION:The University of Oxford is marking the 100th anniversary of the death of Franz Kafka with a programme of activities celebrating his works and enduring legacy. \nKafka died in 1924 of tuberculosis\, which remains one of the world’s deadliest infectious diseases\, not least because of the prevalence of drug-resistant strains of TB. Researchers at the University of Oxford\, supported by the NIHR Oxford Biomedical Research Centre (BRC)\, are tackling TB in a variety of ways\, from vaccines to more targeted treatments. \nJoin us for this exciting talk at the Weston Library looking at various aspects of tuberculosis and how Oxford is at the forefront of addressing this major global challenge. \nProfessor Helen McShane\, Deputy Head of the Medical Sciences Division and Director of the Oxford BRC\, has a wealth of experience in this field\, including developing revolutionary new TB candidate vaccines. \nDr Philip Fowler will explore the role of genetics in identifying TB strains and their resistance to antibiotics and so developing more effective treatments. \nAnd patient representative Amy will share her personal TB journey\, through the challenges of diagnosis and treatment. \nThis is a free event but has limited spaces\, please reserve your spot here

SUMMARY:NIHR Oxford BRC Statistics Hub Lunchtime Seminar: Trial designs for early phase trials
DESCRIPTION:This is the third in a series of eight lunchtime seminars organised by the NIHR Oxford BRC Statistics Hub. Each seminar is 20 minutes long followed by 10 minutes of Q&A\, and will be held via Microsoft Teams. These seminars are open to all in the University of Oxford and Oxford University Hospitals NHS Trust. \n  \nTrial designs for early phase trials \nAlexander Ooms\, OCTRU Senior Statistician \nWednesday 6th November 2024\, 1:00-1:30pm \nEarly phase clinical trials are critical for assessing the safety\, dosage\, and preliminary efficacy of new treatments. This seminar will outline some available designs in Phase I and Phase II settings. \nPhase I trials primarily focus on determining safe dosages and identifying side effects using broad categories of ‘rule-based’ or ‘model-based’ dose escalation methods. \nPhase II trials typically aim to give an early indication of treatment efficacy and further assess safety via single-arm or randomised controlled trials. Adaptive\, occasionally Bayesian\, designs are popular in the early phase setting and some examples of adaptive designs will be discussed. \nNo registration is required. \nClick here to join the session.

SUMMARY:NIHR Oxford BRC Statistics Hub Lunchtime Seminar: What's so great about RCTs?
DESCRIPTION:This is the fourth in a series of eight lunchtime seminars organised by the NIHR Oxford BRC Statistics Hub. Each seminar is 20 minutes long followed by 10 minutes of Q&A\, and will be held via Microsoft Teams. These seminars are open to all in the University of Oxford and Oxford University Hospitals NHS Trust. \n \nWhat’s so great about RCTs? \nIoana Marian\, OCTRU Senior Statistician \nTuesday 3rd December 2024\, 1:00-1:30pm \nRandomised Controlled Trials (RCTs) are experiments that help establish which interventions (e.g. medical\, surgical\, or behavioural) are effective\, safe and can improve healthcare. Why RCTs are considered the ‘gold’ standard design for comparing medical treatments will be reviewed. The benefits of random allocation of treatments will be considered\, along with how to implement randomisation in practice. The importance of designing the study well and some of the common pitfalls to avoid will be presented in this session. \nNo registration is required. \nClick here to join the session.
