For slowly progressed diseases, it may take years, if not decades, to observe clinical outcomes, such as mortality. Owing to the regulatory agencies’ accelerated approval pathway, drug developers can now consider applying for a drug approval based on surrogate endpoints. In this session, many surrogate endpoints adopted in various diseases and statistical methods for determining the validity of the surrogacy will be discussed, including their implementation in real case examples.

Learning Objectives

Describe cases that utilize the accelerated approval and what good surrogate endpoints are for common and rare diseases; Identify how to apply appropriate statistical methods for assessing the association between surrogate endpoints and clinical outcomes.
