THETA News

Evolutions in Network Meta-Analysis Methods are quickly evolving which enable estimates of efficacy of multiple treatments simultaneously or estimates of efficacy in the absence of trials between treatments. At the same time, the Canadian Agency for Drugs and Technology in Health (CADTH) has identified that in estimates of clinical benefit, meta-analysis methods are sometimes not used when they should be, incorrectly done, or not fully and transparently reported.

At this workshop experts will review indirect and mixed treatment comparison approaches to evidence synthesis, how mixed treatment comparison meta-analysis is evolving in Canada, and the status of the development of Canadian guidelines for good research practices for indirect treatment comparisons.
