Dose Finding in Drug Development (Statistics for Biology and Health) by: Naitee Ting (Editor)

This book introduces the drug development process, the design and analysis of clinical trials. Many of the discussions are based on applications of statistical methods in the design and analysis of dose response studies. Although the book is prepared mainly for statisticians/biostatisticians, it also serves as a useful reference to a variety of professionals working for the pharmaceutical industry. The potential readers include pharmacokienticists, clinical scientists, clinical pharmacologists, pharmacists, project managers, pharmaceutical scientists, clinicians, programmers, data managers, regulatory specialists, and study report writers. This book is also a good reference for professionals working in a drug regulatory environment, for example, the FDA. Scientists and/or reviewers from both U.S. and foreign drug regulatory agencies can benefit greatly from this book. In addition, statistical and medical professionals in academia may find this book helpful in understanding the drug development process and practical concerns in selecting doses for a new drug.

"The book will be of particular interest to statisticians with some pharmaceutical industry experience who find themselves working on phase II dose finding problems. It will also be valuable for clinicians and pharmacokineticists with some statistical background. All chapters in the book are extensively referenced as they each do not pretend to exhaust their subject." Journal of Biopharmaceutical Statistics, Issue 2, 2007

"The book is a collection of chapters contributed by different authors, each addressing a different aspect of the important problem of how to identify appropriate doses of medication during the drug development process a ] . Consequently the most appropriate audience is statisticians and biostatisticians who desire an overview of the medical and regulatory contexts of the design and analysis of dose response studies a ] . On the whole the individual chapters are well written, and the book overall is a nice reference a ] ." (C. A. Fung, Short Book Reviews, Vol. 26 (2), 2006)

"Dose Finding in Drug Development is a contemporary roadmap to the statistical design and analysis of dose-response studies, particularly those in phases II and III of drug development. ...In general, the book is easy to read. ...At roughly $5.71 per chapters, with each chapter authored by between one and three established experts, the book is a high-yield investment of any reader's time and money." (Thomas E. Bradstreet, Journal of the American Statistical Association, Vol. 102, No. 477, 2007)
