ARMD: Data of the Age-Related Macular Degeneration Study
In Surrogate: Evaluation of Surrogate Endpoints in Clinical Trials
ARMD R Documentation
Data of the Age-Related Macular Degeneration Study
Description
These are the data of a clinical trial involving patients suffering from age-related macular degeneration (ARMD), a condition that involves a progressive loss of vision. A total of 181 patients from 36 centers participated in the trial. Patients' visual acuity was assessed using standardized vision charts. There were two treatment conditions (placebo and interferon-\alpha). The potential surrogate endpoint is the change in the visual acuity at 24 weeks (6 months) after starting treatment. The true endpoint is the change in the visual acuity at 52 weeks.
Usage
data(ARMD)
Format
A data.frame with 181 observations on 5 variables.
IdThe Patient ID.
CenterThe center in which the patient was treated.
TreatThe treatment indicator, coded as -1 = placebo and 1 = interferon-\alpha.
Diff24The change in the visual acuity at 24 weeks after starting treatment. This endpoint is a potential surrogate for Diff52.
Diff52The change in the visual acuity at 52 weeks after starting treatment. This outcome serves as the true endpoint.
