Mulling Adaptive Clinical Trial Design, and Hula Hoops

Can accumulating clinical trial data be used to adapt trials in their earlier stages to either optimize them or suggest that they ought to be terminated? That's the premise of adaptive clinical design; this article from Applied Clinical Trials ponders the question of whether adaptive trials are here to stay or will go the route of the hula hoop.

Thanks to the Agile Clinical Development blog from Health Decisions for passing this one along.
