  2. Bio 260, FDA t test calculations example As an example of the practical use of statistics you will take the role of drug company project managers. Scenario: A new drug, ABT007, has been designed by R&D that they think will help treat Lurgi, a deadly fictional disease that causes skin lesions, intestinal distress and permanent nerve damage. About Lurgi: The primary cause of the deleterious effects is an increase in the number of b-killer cells in infected individuals. The disease is transmitted via close bodily contact. About ABT007: The drug is administered orally. The drug acts like a long-term vaccine, it is predicted to reduce the increase in the number of b-killer cells during infection, thereby reducing, but not eliminating, the deleterious effects.

  3. Bio 260, FDA t test calculations example About marketing ABT007: The # of b-killer cells in an infected person = 30 per ml The # of b-killer cells in an un-infected person = 15 per ml If the drug can be shown to lower the # of b-killer cells in an infected person it can be sold. I.E., if the p value of a One-tailed, one-sample t test comparing the value in ABT007 infected individuals to the normal level for infected indicates significance. The marketing research department predicts that the net income from manufacturing the drug will be $2,000,000 per year if the drug is significant at the p<0.05 level. The marketing research department predicts that the net income from manufacturing the drug will be $4,000,000 per year if the drug is significant at the p<0.01 level. Drug patents last for 20 years, after that time the drug will no longer be profitable.

  4. Bio 260, FDA t test calculations example Infected person = 30 per ml, un-infected person = 15 per ml $2M per year if p<0.05, $4M per year if p<0.01, Sells for 20 years. Clinical trial of ABT007: 1,000 individuals at high risk of contracting Lurgi have been recruited and administered ABT007. They will be monitored at the end of each year to determine: How many are infected? Of those who are infected, what are their # of b-killer cells? At the end of each year we will do a one-tailed one-sample t test comparing the values for those infected to the value for normal infected individuals. The initial cost to recruit the subjects, pay the subjects and administer the ABT007 is $5,000,000. The cost of each year's monitoring and testing is $1,000,000.

  5. Bio 260, FDA t test calculations example Infected person = 30 per ml, un-infected person = 15 per ml $2M per year if p<0.05, $4M per year if p<0.01, Sells for 20 years. Initial cost = $5M, cost each year of trial = $1M. Clinical trial of ABT007: The total expected profit from ABT007 will be?

  6. Bio 260, FDA t test calculations example Infected person = 30 per ml, un-infected person = 15 per ml Profit = 20 x $2M - $5M - (# years of study)($1M), if p<0.05 Profit = 20 x $4M - $5M - (# years of study)($1M), if p<0.01 Clinical trial of ABT007: The total expected profit from ABT007 will be? Net income = 20 x $2M, if p<0.05 or 20 x $4M, if p<0.01 Total study cost = initial cost + cost of the years of study = $5M + (# years of study)($1M)

  7. Bio 260, FDA t test calculations example Infected person = 30 per ml, un-infected person = 15 per ml Profit = 20 x $2M - $5M - (# years of study)($1M), if p<0.05 Profit = 20 x $4M - $5M - (# years of study)($1M), if p<0.01 Clinical trial of ABT007: Task of your division is to monitor the trial and decide when it will end in order to maximize profit. Year 1 begins: Executives hold a party and wish you all luck since your work is the future of the company and you are the hope of all people with Lurgi (and may make profit for the company's shareholders).
