1 Impact of varying data quality on statistical analyses of integrated datasets Eugenio Andraca-Carrera Mathematical Statistician Division of Biometrics VII Office of Biostatistics, CDER, FDA ISCTM 11th Annual Scientific Meeting Washington, DC 17 February 2015

3 Motivation for integrating datasets Why? More data! Obtain more precise answers Quantify the risk of rare events Investigate a potential signal Assess effects in subgroups Understand variation from different studies However more data are not necessarily better data Focus on retrospective analyses
4 Outline Motivating example: PPI meta-analysis case study Challenges of integrating randomized trials Additional challenges when the goal of the meta-analysis is outside the scope of the original data Conclusions
5 What do we mean by meta-analysis? Statistical technique to integrate findings from independent studies controlling for trial heterogeneity Estimate a common treatment effect In this talk we use the term meta-analysis for an integrated analysis of trials with subject-level data
6 Case study: the PPI meta-analysis Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are used to reduce the production of gastric acid Epidemiological studies suggested possible increase in risk of fractures of hip, wrist, and spine with use of PPIs FDA issued a Drug Safety Communication on May 25, 2010: planned meta-analysis of data from long-term, placebocontrolled trials of bisphosphonates (drugs intended for the treatment of osteoporosis) to evaluate risk of fractures associated with PPIs
7 Objectives of meta-analysis 1. To determine whether use of PPIs is associated with an increased risk of fractures among subjects enrolled in long-term, placebo-controlled trials of osteoporosis drugs. 3 types of fractures: vertebral, non-vertebral, hip. 2. To determine whether use of PPIs is associated with a decrease in Bone Mineral Density (BMD) among subjects enrolled in long-term, placebo-controlled trials of osteoporosis drugs. 3 BMD locations: femoral neck, lumbar spine, hip.
8 Why use trials for osteoporosis to study PPIs? Advantages More fractures captured Better assessment of fractures and BMD Long-term trials (>1 year) Common use of PPIs as concomitant medication (CM) Disadvantages PPI exposure not randomized Quality of PPI exposure data may be poor This Meta-Analysis uses RCTs, but is closer to a MA of observational studies
9 Data Overview 15 trials for 7 different products 45,032 randomized subjects (27,367 to active treatment) Trials conducted between 1995 and 2004 Multicenter, international trials

11 Outline PPI meta-analysis case study Challenges of integrating randomized trials Covariates Exposure Outcome Additional challenges when the goal of the meta-analysis is outside the scope of the original data Conclusions
12 Challenges: Covariates Lack of consistency between studies Different definitions Different recording methods Missing data Subject level Trial level
13 Covariates in PPI Meta-Analysis: Demographics and baseline characteristics Age, Sex, Race available in all datasets Race was defined differently across trials Smoking Status defined differently: Smoker/Non-Smoker, Smoker/Previous Smoker/Non- Smoker, Tobacco User/Non-User BMI unavailable in one dataset (height was not captured)
14 Challenges: Exposure of Interest If exposure of interest is not part of a randomized treatment arm: Dosage Episodes Duration Missing data
15 Exposure in PPI Meta-Analysis: Randomized treatment (osteoporosis drugs) exposure fully recorded PPI use was captured in concomitant meds datasets: Missing dosage Missing duration, start time, number of episodes Captured in verbatim form: Example: Omeprazole = Acichek, Acifre, Acimed, Acipres, Acromon, etc Possible misclassification as PPI user / non-user
16 Challenges: Outcome Lack of consistency between studies Different definitions Different recording methods Missing data
17 Outcome in PPI Meta-Analysis: Outcomes Adjudication of fractures varied by location and trial: Some used X-rays Some adjudicated by a panel Some only included fractures in AE datasets Bone Mineral Density was available in all trials Possible misclassification of fractures

19 Data Challenges - Summary Harmonizing covariates, exposure and outcomes Measuring exposure particularly if not part of randomized treatment Capturing the right outcomes In our PPI meta-analysis significant resources were needed at each step - clinical and statistical input needed
20 Outline PPI meta-analysis case study Challenges of integrating randomized trials Additional challenges when the goal of the metaanalysis is outside the scope of the original data Conclusions
21 Moving Beyond the Data s Original Question Were the trials designed to answer the same research question? Different endpoint of interest than in study? Different treatment(s) of interest than in study? Randomization concerns If exposure of interest is randomized in the trials, OK If not, can t assume baseline covariates (including unobserved) are balanced Data is observational PPI study treatment of interest is PPI, not osteoporosis medications Potential confounding
22 Outline PPI meta-analysis case study Challenges of integrating randomized trials Additional challenges when the goal of the meta-analysis is outside the scope of the original data Conclusions
23 Lessons Learned: Prospective meta-analyses can anticipate many of these issues Plan research questions and Statistical Analysis Plan before collecting data For retrospective meta-analyses: Consider heterogeneity of trials, endpoints, populations Assumptions may be needed for harmonizing covariates and endpoints, defining exposure, etc Plan for missing data Allocate enough resources for data cleaning and harmonization Concomitant Medication data may provide limited information of exposure
24 Lessons Learned (continued): Test your assumptions - sensitivity analyses Understand randomization (or lack thereof) Standardization is important in clinical trials More data better data The interpretability and impact of an integrated analysis depend on: Pre-specified plan for data collection, inclusion criteria, event definition and analysis Quality of the data Plausibility of your assumptions and generalizability of your results Quality of your analysis Clear and effective communication of your results
