  • First Online:
Planning and Analyzing Clinical Trials with Composite Endpoints

Abstract

In this chapter, we discuss several original clinical trials for composite binary endpoints along with their designs, results, and possible limitations. The focus of this chapter is to propose and apply alternative planning and analysis strategies which might help to improve the performance of the design or to ease interpretation of results.
