  1. Surrogat - endepunkter:Teori og empiri Fagdag i helseøkonomi 3. mars 2009 Ivar Sønbø Kristiansen (ivarsk@c2i.net) Institutt for helseledelse og helseøkonomi, UiO Institut for Sundhedstjenesteforskning, Syddansk Universitet, Odense

  2. Conflict of interest • Institutt for helseledelse og helseøkonomi har mottatt et doktorgradsstipend av Legemiddelindustriforeningen for blant annet å studere validiteten av surrogat-endepunkter

  3. Surrogate endpoint • ”Any end point that substitutes for and predicts a final patient-related outcome” • May lead to shorter and smaller studies and faster times to licensing and dissemination of new technologies (Taylor-RS and Elston-J. Health Technology Assessment 2009; 13: No. 8)

  4. Surrogate endpoints (Taylor-RS and Elston-J. Health Technology Assessment 2009; 13: No. 8)

  5. Surrogate endpoint ”successes” • Coronary Heart Disease Policy Model (Goldman et al., 1991) corroborated by 4S trial of statins in secondary prevention • Others

  6. Surrogate endpoint failures • AZT treatment for HIV/AIDS • Premature ventricular beats: CAST I/II trials (encainide, flecainide, moricizine) • WHO clofibrate study

  7. Cholesterol as surrogate endpoint • RCT clofibrate versus placebo (n=3,898) • 5-year mortality: 20.9% vs 20.9% (p=0.55) • Clofibrate 80%+ dose: 15.0% mortality • Clofibrate 0-79% dose: 24.6% mortality • Placebo 80%+ dose: 15.1% mortality • Placebo 0-79% dose: 24.6% mortality • Placebo-difference adjusted for 40 explanatory variables: 16.4% vs 25.8% (p<0.000000007) NEJM 1980; 303: 1038-41)

  11. Reasons for surrogate endpoint failure (Taylor-RS and Elston-J. Health Technology Assessment 2009; 13: No. 8)

  12. Prentice-kriteriene • “For a valid surrogate endpoint, a test of the null hypothesis of no relationship to the treatment groups for the surrogate endpoint is also a valid test of the corresponding null hypothesis for the true clinical outcome.” • Prentice anførte fire kriterier for at dette kravet skal være oppfylt. Disse benyttes lite i dag da de er ansett å være for strenge, men teoretisk sett optimale (Prentice. Surrogate endpoints in clinical trials: definition and operational criteria. Statistics in medicine 1989;8(4):431)

  13. Prentice-kriteriene • f(S|T) ≠ f(S) (treatment affects distr. surrogate) • f(C|T) ≠ f(C) (treatment affects clinical outcome) • f(C|S) ≠ f(C) (surrogate affects clinical outcome) • f(C|S,T) = f(C|S) (all treatment effects go through surrogate) S = Surrogat C = Clinical outcome T = Treatment (Prentice. Surrogate endpoints in clinical trials: definition and operational criteria. Statistics in medicine 1989;8(4):431)

  14. Validering i praksis • Det vanlige i praksis er å lage en regresjonsmodell: C = f(a+bS) • Beregner a og b ved en eller annen regresjonsteknikk. • a=0 betyr at bareS påvirker C (Prentice kriterium 4) • b ≠ 0 betyr at S påvirker C (Prentice kriterium 1-3) • Individ-data versus aggregerte data • Mange meta-regresjoner på kreft, få på hjertekarsykdom • Medline: 50,000 hits for RCT and (hypercholesterolaemia or hypertension) Håvard Andre Larsen et al: Blood pressure as surrogate endpoint in antihypertensive treatment: A Bayesian meta regression (unpublished)

  15. Validering i praksisdatagrunnlag • Kunnskapssenterets rapport om medikamentell primærprevensjon med antihypertensiva og kolesterolsenkende medikamenter • 29 studier på hypertensjon • Ekskluderte studier med diabetes og/eller behandlingsskifte i studien, eller manglende info om varians i surrogat og/klinisk endepunkt (n=20) • Surrogat-endepunkt: blodtrykk • Klinisk endepunkt: slag og død (antall slag og dødsfall) Håvard Andre Larsen et al: Blood pressure as surrogate endpoint in antihypertensive treatment: A Bayesian meta regression (unpublished)

  16. Validering i praksis: studiene

  17. Validering i praksis • Bayesian meta regression with DIC criterion performed in Winbugs • Poorest fit: model without surrogate • Best fit: model with intercept, covariance between endpoints included, but between-trial variance=0. • Surrogate impacts clinical outcomes, but larger SDs for stroke – more uncertain predictions for stroke than mortality

  19. Prediksjon av effekt av blodtrykksreduksjon på dødelighet (n=2.000) Håvard Andre Larsen et al: Blood pressure as surrogate endpoint in antihypertensive treatment: A Bayesian meta regression (unpublished)

  20. RCTs and clinical endpoints • 324 consecutive CVD trials • JAMA, Lancet, NEJM 2000-2005 • Surrogate as primary endpoint: 77/115 (67%) ”positive” • Clinical as primary endpoint: 113/209 (54%, p=0,02) ”positive” (Ridker et al. Jama 2006; 295: 2270-4)

  21. UK HTA study • UK HTA program monographs 2005-6 (n=100) • 4 based on cost-effectiveness models • Recommendation: • Primarily clinical relevant endpoints incl HRQOL • Review of the evidence of the surrogate • Level 1: association in RCTs • Level 2: association in observational studies • Level 3: plausibility based on biological models (Taylor&Elston: HTA 2009; 13: No. 8

  22. Tentative konklusjoner • Surrogatendepunkter kan gi valid prediksjon av kliniske endepunkter • Surrogatendepunkter behøver ikke gi valid prediksjon av kliniske endepunkter • Hvorfor skulle man unnlate å gjøre studier med kliniske endepunkter når det likevel genereres lastbil-lass med dokumentasjon?
