Spiders, Swimmers, & More - Critical Oncology Data Insights (Part 2), Upcoming June 2018 Webinar Series Hosted by Xtalks
Second of 2-part Series to Examine Spider and Dosing Plots
TORONTO, May 31, 2018 (Newswire.com) - Waterfall, spider, swimmer and dosing plots are industry-standard visualizations for oncology and are used in both business development and safety monitoring applications. Given the prevalence of these plots, one might assume that they are easily developed. That’s just not the case. Getting the data together to make the plots, developing the algorithms and creating visualizations that fit the protocol and study phase is no easy task.
Learn how PerkinElmer can simplify the process in an upcoming two-part live webinar series. Featured speakers will demonstrate and share their expertise in the development of oncology visualizations.
While Part 1 on June 7 focuses on waterfall and swimmer plots, this second session on June 20 will continue by examining spider and dosing plots.
Each session will include the process for our end-to-end solution, including:
- Pulling together data
- Algorithm development
- Custom-tailored visualizations for study protocols
- Type of study (solid vs. liquid tumor)
- And trial phase
The Problem: Large organizational effort and increased risk to develop one-off visualizations.
Clinicians often develop these plots in spreadsheet tools (e.g., Microsoft Excel) at great time and expense to the business. Making plots this way can lead to visualization mistakes (human error) and skew the resulting efficacy measurements, endangering the safety of trial subjects. These plot development efforts in spreadsheet tools end up being one-offs, and there is no path forward for refreshing the data and updating the plots without more time and effort.
Clinicians, safety monitoring, biostats and data management are all taxed to keep up with the expansion of oncology trials that are underway.
Solution: Visualizations developed by industry experts, tailored and reused across studies, and built to be refreshed with the click of a button.
PerkinElmer knows and understands the visualizations, their value to safety and clinical development, the algorithms that are being used and the importance that users can be confident in the efficacy analytics being provided. They can guide users through the process, develop the algorithms and visualizations for them, and share their knowledge of how the industry is utilizing these plots.
Using TIBCO Spotfire®, they can provide visualizations that can be refreshed at the click of a button. The result is near real-time analytics of the oncology data and their visualizations work in concert with their medical review solutions for end-to-end safety monitoring. Never miss a safety signal!
