Meta-analytic Phase II clinical trial
A meta-analytic Phase II clinical trial integrates individual or aggregate data from multiple single-arm or small Phase II studies into a unified meta-analytic framework. Rather than relying on a single underpowered trial to screen for activity, this design pools evidence across comparable cohorts to obtain a more reliable estimate of treatment response, enabling better-informed go/no-go decisions before committing to a large Phase III randomized trial.
