PACE baseline results at BACME conference?
- Thread starter oceanblue
- Start date
I'd thought that Peter White was presenting baseline results on the PACE trial to the BACME conference last week but haven't seen anything posted on this. Does anyone know if it happened and what was said? thanks

Thanks - I was only expecting baseline data eg demographics and maybe split between different case definitions, rather than the results of different therapies trialled but from what you say he didn't even give that. Thanks for the birthday party leaflet too

Study protocols should include what analyses are planned, especially big, publicly funded ones like this - some study protocols are published and registered with clinical trials registries (partly so that researchers can't change their story later about what analyses they intended). I would think the PACE planned analyses would be on public record somewhere.
Did they collect data to allow them to split patients into subgroups by case definition? I've been wondering why studies haven't done this as a matter of course, for years - research could have been a lot farther ahead if they had.

They look like they will examine the effect of the CDC criteria and ME.

We generally didn't have protocols like this in the past.
