Encyclopedia of Biopharmaceutical Statistics

description:

This comprehensive, accessible, user-friendly reference covers all key topics for evaluation of data at critical stages in the pharmaceutical research anddevelopment process?highlighting the vital areas of statistical design and regulatory requirements.

The first single-volume compendium in biopharmaceutical statistics emphasizing practical applications in pharmaceutical research and development

Each entry of the Encyclopedia includes:
self-contained, self-explanatory, and accessible data to nonbiostatisticians
"real-world" examples of statistical design and practice in the pharmaceutical industry
thoroughly up-to-date standards on good laboratory practice (GLP), good clinical practice (GCP), current good manufacturing practice (cGMP), and good
statistics practice (GSP)

Written by over 75 acclaimed international experts, the Encyclopedia of Biopharmaceutical Statistics
explores interrelations among physiochemical properties of drugs in dosage form and their pharmacological, toxicological, and clinical effects elucidates new applications of computer telephony technology
surveys the crucial relationship of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to pharmaceutical development, clinical trials and testing, and marketing showcases monoclonal antibodies, cytokines, hematopoietic growth factors, tumor vaccines, xenotherapies, and cell-selection devices
describes one-sided equivalence and noninferiority trials investigates genetic toxicology tests and other animal studies illustrates assay technologies measuring gravimetric mass, potency, and physical or biological properties of analytes discusses proposals for internationally standardized systems of data collection and analysis supplies vital economic data on factors such as reference-based pricing, burden-of-illness studies, cost?utility analysis, and cost?benefit analysis and more!

Containing over 2200 references, equations, tables, and drawings, the Encyclopedia of Biopharmaceutical Statistics serves as an absolutely indispensable reference for biostatisticians, chemists, pharmaceutical scientists, clinical researchers, and development pharmacists in the pharmaceutical industry and regulatory agencies, as well as upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.

Partial Integral Operators and Integro-Differential Equations


Series: Pure and Applied Mathematics volume: 230

description:
The first self-contained account of integro-differential equations of the Barbashin type and partial integral operators. Presents the basic theory of Barbashin equations in spaces of continuous or measurable functions, including existence, uniqueness, stability, and perturbation results. Discusses the theory and applications of partial integral operators and linear and nonlinear equations. Topics range from abstract functional-analytic approaches to specific
uses in continuum mechanics and engineering.
