Duke Industry Statistics Symposium 2017 | Are Pragmatic Clinical Trials Ready for Prime Time? September 7, 2017
Objectives
• Review PRECIS-2, a framework for pragmatic trial design & reporting
• Apply the PRECIS-2 framework to an example of designing a Phase IIIb drug trial
2
PRAGMATIC TRIALS
A randomized controlled trial to inform decisions about practice & real-world effectiveness
Review ArticleThe Changing Face of Clinical Trials
No clinical trial is completely explanatory or pragmatic. Trials exist on a continuum.

1 = very explanatory5 = very pragmatic
Case Application: Effectiveness of site-specific antibiotic treatment for periodontal disease
6
Actisite® (tetracycline periodontal) periodontal fiber
Good pragmatic trial research requires stakeholder engagement
• To produce information that is meaningful and useful in practice, we must understand priorities and needs from the perspective of patients and other stakeholders
• Patient- and stakeholder-centered research increases the likelihood for effective dissemination and implementation of the findings
8
Actisite consumer and market understanding: Concept development
Who will use the product – general dentists, periodontists, both?
In what types of patients would they want to use Actisite?
What evidence do they need to see to convince them to use Actisite?
9
Efficacy Trial (Phase 3 study)Multicenter evaluation of tetracycline fiber therapy
5 academic clinical centers
Adult periodontitis (N=113), with 4 non-adjacent teeth, pocket depths = 6-10 mm
4 quadrant randomization: tetracycline fiber, control fiber, scaling & root planning, untreated
Fibers were placed in the pocket and maintained with a cyanoacrylate adhesive for 10 (+/- 2 days)
Significant clinical response at 60d follow-up: pocket depth, attachment level, bleeding on probing

Study population & setting
Eligibility: Who is selected to participate in the trial?
Setting: Where is the trial being done?
Recruitment: How are participants recruited into the trial?
12
BMJ 2015;350:h2147
13
Actisite is for adults with a
problem site, as an adjunct to root-planning and scaling
Eligibility:Mild to moderate periodontitis, 2 teeth with 5-9 mm probing depths that bled on probing
Setting and Recruitment:7 private periodontal practices in the U.S.
14
Recruited 113 periodontal maintenance patients (10-20 per practice) in 6 weeks!
Real-world use
Flexibility-Delivery: How should the intervention be delivered?
Organization: What expertise and resources are needed to deliver the intervention?
Flexibility-Adherence: What measures are in place to make sure participants adhere to the intervention?
15
BMJ 2015;350:h2147
Organization:Expertise needed
17
able to be placed by the same person who performs root planing and scaling
Flexibility-Adherence:Chose to be more explanatory
18
Check fiber retention; replace if necessary
Check fiber retention
Place fiber + glue
94% retention
77% retention
Research design
Outcome: How relevant is the primary outcome to participants?
Follow-Up: How closely are participants followed-up?
Analysis: To what extent is all data included in the primary analysis?
19
BMJ 2015;350:h2147
20
Outcomes:Clinical: Pocket depth, attachment level, and bleeding on probing
Usage: fiber retention rate
Follow-Up:Normal periodontal maintenance schedule (3 and 6 months)
Added 1 month assessment for a matching data point with the efficacy study
21
Data collection:chairside “Electronic Record”
Analysis:Power: Sized to detect a pocket depth reduction of 0.5 mm or more
Analysis: intention-to-treat, including treatment-by-center interaction
23
Actisite® (tetracycline periodontal) periodontal fiber is indicated as an adjunct to scaling and root planing for reduction of pocket depth and bleeding on probing in patients with adult periodontitis.
