Innovations in Bayesian Clinical Trials Symposium & Interactive Workshop

Cytel is the largest provider of statistical software and advanced analytics for clinical trial design and execution. For over thirty years, Cytel’s scientific rigor and operational excellence have helped biotech and pharmaceutical companies navigate uncertainty, prove value and unlock the full potential of their data.

Founded in 1987 by Cyrus Mehta and Nitin Patel, research scientists at Harvard University and MIT respectively and collaborators at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute, the early mission was to create software that could expedite oncology trials. At the time of founding groundbreaking therapies were slow to market due to the time it took to conduct small sample statistical analysis. After successfully launching StatXact® and LogXact® for small, skewed and sparse data, Cytel pioneered East®, which remains the industry standard for advanced trial design.
