12 Design, a Case Study and Review

The course ends where a study begins and where an analysis ends. A survival study must be planned to observe enough events, and the first part of this section shows how many are needed and how many patients it takes to see them. The second part carries a complete analysis of a clinical trial through the methods of the course, from Kaplan–Meier curves to a checked Cox model. The last part reviews which method answers which question.
