Sequentially updating the likelihood of success of a Phase 3 pivotal time-to-event trial based on interim analyses or external information.

abstract：:A statistic, W, for measuring change from baseline is developed. Its distribution is found. Simulations using W and analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) are run and the results are compared. W is found to be less powerful than ANCOVA, yet is not seen to suffer some of the ill effects to which ANCOVA can fall prey, namely b...
