This task view gathers information on specific R packages for design, monitoring and analysis of data from clinical trials. It focuses on including packages for clinical trial design and monitoring in general plus data analysis packages for a specific type of design. Also, it gives a brief introduction to important packages for analyzing clinical trial data. Please refer to task views ExperimentalDesign, Survival, Pharmacokinetics, Meta-analysis for more details on these topics.
