"We'll deal with the odd values when we unblind."

"The biomarker moved. The clinical endpoint hasn't, yet."

Biostatistics

Our TLF templates have been accepted in NDA submissions. We generate the outputs regulators expect, in the format they expect, removing one of the most common sources of deficiency letters.

Rigorous statistical analysis

We deliver regulatory-compliant tables, listings, and figures through automated, quality-focused processes, and provide specialized statistical analyses across all research phases, optimizing efficacy outcomes using advanced methods like MMRM and Cox proportional hazards.

Innovative efficacy modeling

Pentara leads in novel efficacy outcome modeling, showcased at clinical and statistical meetings. We specialize in Global Statistical Tests (GSTs) for multi-outcome trials, including patient-level and combined outcome analyses, and employ Time Component Tests (TCTs) and composite scores to sharpen disease-modifying therapy assessment.

Trial support experts

Comprehensive clinical trial support from planning to approval, including DSMB and interim analyses. For DSMBs we generate blinded and unblinded TLFs, prepare presentations, and provide blinded or unblinded statisticians, or independent committee members. For interim analyses we produce unblinded efficacy output.

Standards

High standards, applied to our own team first

Pentara recognizes the benefits of having high standards for our industry. Pentara requires all programmers to be SAS certified; even our summer interns must be SAS certified before they can work here.

Those standards are why our TLF templates have been accepted in NDAs, and why our output moves through review without rework.

Measuring change in slow, heterogeneous, hard-to-measure disease. That's the problem these exist to solve, and it's the only thing we've done for twenty-five years.
