Miriam Hattle; Joie Ensor; Katie Scandrett; Marienke van Middelkoop; Danielle A. van der Windt; Melanie A. Holden; Richard D. Riley – Research Synthesis Methods, 2024
Individual participant data (IPD) meta-analysis projects obtain, harmonise, and synthesise original data from multiple studies. Many IPD meta-analyses of randomised trials are initiated to identify treatment effect modifiers at the individual level, thus requiring statistical modelling of interactions between treatment effect and participant-level…

Proctor, Tanja; Zimmermann, Samuel; Seide, Svenja; Kieser, Meinhard – Research Synthesis Methods, 2022
During drug development, a biomarker is sometimes identified as separating a patient population into those with more and those with less benefit from evaluated treatments. Consequently, later studies might be targeted, while earlier ones are performed in mixed patient populations. This poses a challenge in evidence synthesis, especially if only…

Piepho, Hans-Peter; Madden, Laurence V. – Research Synthesis Methods, 2022
Network meta-analysis is a popular method to synthesize the information obtained in a systematic review of studies (e.g., randomized clinical trials) involving subsets of multiple treatments of interest. The dominant method of analysis employs within-study information on treatment contrasts and integrates this over a network of studies. One…
