II. Types: Randomized Study
- Randomized Clinical Trial
- In randomized trials, participants are assigned by chance to different groups
- Researchers and participants are typically "blinded" to the assigned group
- Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT)
- In randomized controlled trials, a control group is compared to one or more treatment groups
- As with other randomized trials, researchers and participants are typically "blinded" to group assignment
- Randomized Controlled Trials, when performed well, are the most reliable level of Research Study
III. Types: Observational Studies
- Observational Study
- Individuals are observed or specific outcomes are measured
- No intervention is performed to attempt to alter the outcome of those studied
- Cohort study
- Cross-section or population is selected (e.g. nurses)
- Group selection is based on specific characteristics that researchers intend to study (e.g. nurses who smoke versus non-smokers)
- Study participants are followed, evaluating specific outcome measures at specific time points (e.g. cancer at 5, 10, 15 and 20 years)
- Cohort studies may be retrospective (e.g. historical database reviews) or prospective
- Risk of confounding factors that distort results
- Case-control study
- Two groups of participants are studied: One group with a disease, and the other without
- The 2 groups are otherwise similar (age, gender, socioeconomic factors)
- Each group is interviewed with medical medical review and other analysis
- Researchers identify factors that distinguish the 2 groups and may identify causative factors for those with the disease
- Two groups of participants are studied: One group with a disease, and the other without
- Cross Sectional Study
- A specific, random cohort of participants (e.g. 20 year old men) are studied (interviewed, surveyed) at single point in time
- Qualitative Study
- Research focuses on nonnumeric data to investigate individual or group characteristics
- Describes experience and behaviors, Perceptions and beliefs with language
IV. Types: Additional Statistical Analysis Tools
- Intention to Treat Analysis (ITT)
- Statistical analysis of study participants based on the original, randomized treatment group assignment
- Includes patients regardless of the treatment they ultimately received (or did not receive)
- ITT reduces the study bias that comes from excluding patients who are not fully compliant with study protocol
- Propensity Score matching
- Used by observational studies to simulate a Randomized Control Trial
- Randomization is simulated by applying statistical techniques to divide a large study cohort into groups
- Goal is for groups to be similar in all identified characteristics OTHER than those factors being studied
- Propensity Score is the probability of group assignment based on baseline characteristics
- Run-in Period
- Study technique in which all participants are given a Placebo after study inclusion but BEFORE randomization
- Identifies participants most suitable as study participants
- Intended to exclude certain participants (e.g. Placebo responders, noncompliance)
- Run-in Periods are intended to increase a study's power, more likely to detect a statistical difference
- Used more commonly in industry sponsored studies
- Risk of decreased external validity, and risks participant unblinding
- Study technique in which all participants are given a Placebo after study inclusion but BEFORE randomization

Definition (NCI_NCI-GLOSS) | A study that compares two groups of people: those with the disease or condition under study (cases) and a very similar group of people who do not have the disease or condition (controls). Researchers study the medical and lifestyle histories of the people in each group to learn what factors may be associated with the disease or condition. For example, one group may have been exposed to a particular substance that the other was not. Also called retrospective study. |
Definition (MSH) | Studies which start with the identification of persons with a disease of interest and a control (comparison, referent) group without the disease. The relationship of an attribute to the disease is examined by comparing diseased and non-diseased persons with regard to the frequency or levels of the attribute in each group. |

Definition (MEDLINEPLUS) |
Clinical trials are research studies that test how well new medical approaches work in people. Each study answers scientific questions and tries to find better ways to prevent, screen for, diagnose, or treat a disease. Clinical trials may also compare a new treatment to a treatment that is already available. Every clinical trial has a protocol, or action plan, for conducting the trial. The plan describes what will be done in the study, how it will be conducted, and why each part of the study is necessary. Each study has its own rules about who can take part. Some studies need volunteers with a certain disease. Some need healthy people. Others want just men or just women. In the United States, an independent committee of physicians, statisticians, and members of the community must approve and monitor the protocol. They make sure that the risks are small and are worth the potential benefits. NIH: National Institutes of Health |
Definition (NCI) | A research study that prospectively assigns human participants or groups of humans to one or more health-related interventions to evaluate the effects on health outcomes. Interventions include but are not restricted to drugs, cells and other biological products, surgical procedures, radiologic procedures, devices, behavioral treatments, process-of-care changes, and preventive care.(World Health Organization, International Clinical Trials Registry Platform) |

Definition (NCI_NCI-GLOSS) | A study in which the participants are assigned by chance to separate groups that compare different treatments; neither the researchers nor the participants can choose which group. Using chance to assign people to groups means that the groups will be similar and that the treatments they receive can be compared objectively. At the time of the trial, it is not known which treatment is best. It is the patient's choice to be in a randomized trial. |
