The simulation capabilities built in the tool are for continuous and dichotomous endpoints with constraints related to various trial level participants and arms.

Users can specify a maximum time for enrolment, number of subjects, definition of successful treatments, participants per arm and concurrent treatments.

The tool can also simulate treatments arriving at different times at the time of the trial.

Berry Consultants Software Solutions director Tom Parke said: “We are thrilled to be able to take some of the concepts and approaches of platform trials from the Berry Consultants scientific team and be able to apply that to our FACTS software.

“This new module brings some initial capabilities and features to our FACTS users as a first step, and we will be continuing to develop this platform trial software in future releases.

“We will continue to develop FACTS and provide to our users the latest and most innovative features in clinical trial design.”

Through licensing the FACTS software package, the advanced approach of platform trials can be shared to commercial clients with the tool.
