# Core B: Biostatistics Core

> **NIH NIH P01** · SLOAN-KETTERING INST CAN RESEARCH · 2020 · $197,953

## Abstract

Abstract:
The Biostatistics Core will provide biostatistical expertise in the design, conduct and analysis of
the clinical trials, animal studies and related research projects generated under this proposal.
The goals of the Core are to provide biostatistical support to the six projects at all stages of the
research. Prior to the initiation of studies, Core staff will consult with investigators to review
study objectives and assist in selecting efficient designs and sample sizes that will provide
adequate power to address study objectives. For clinical studies, a Core member will conduct a
protocol review with investigators and assist in protocol development, sample size
determination, plans for interim analyses and if applicable, randomization. Core staff will
perform statistical analyses and data exploration for P01 investigators using appropriate
statistical methodologies; prepare reports of results; assist investigators with the preparation of
presentations and writing of statistical components of manuscripts; and consult on the design of
subsequent research. The biostatistical team also has widespread experience in applied and
methodologic statistical research, which will allow for the most appropriate methodologies to be
utilized as well as to modify or develop new methods if needed.
