Research impacts

Research Achievements and Collaborations: Has made original, innovative, and distinguished contributions to methodological research, as well as the design, conduct, analysis, interpretation, and dissemination of clinical research that has had an impact at an international level policy, practice, and subsequent research programs. Has been responsible for the provision of statistical leadership to collaborative trials groups to design, undertake, analyse, and report on clinical trials, as well as promoting investigator-initiated research activities. 2020-2024 Scopus/SciVal author publication metrics: FWCI of 5.21, 51% in top 10% most cited worldwide, 39% international collaboration 3,763 citations (10,934 overall). Received the 2020 ACTA (Australian Clinical Trials Alliance) Statistics in Trials Interest Group Excellence in Trial Statistics Award for ENZAMET Trial. Research funding in last 5 years: $3.1M category 1 and $76.7M category 3.

Contributions to the Field: Led methodological research with international impact. Examples in the last 5 years focus on the topic of changes to the design of ongoing trials. This work has been cited in the CONSERVE 2021 Statement (JAMA. 2021;326(3):257-265 FWCI 7.38; top 1% of general medical journals). Also co-published innovative method for appropriately adjusting estimates of effect obtained from trials that terminate early based on the results of an interim analysis (Statistical Methods in Medical Research – top 11% for statistics journals). Co-designed andled the statistical aspects of design, conduct, analysis, and interpretation of many trial. Two key examples in the last 5 years include ENZAMET and TheraP. (1) ENZAMET study selected for plenary presentation at ASCO (peak international clinical oncology conference attended by over 30,000 international delegates). Am second author for both main N Engl J Med paper (2019;381:121) (journal ranked top 1% general medicine), the quality of life J Clin Oncol paper (2022;40:837-46) (journal ranked top 2% cancer research), and the follow-up Lancet Oncol paper (2022;23:1389) (journal ranked top 1% cancer research). Results were used in support of successful registration of enzalutamide with US FDA in this indication and have been incorporated into US and European treatment guidelines. (2) TheraP evaluated efficacy of cutting-edge targeted radiopharmaceutical (Lu-PSMA) in advance prostate cancer that delivers radiation to cells expressing the prostate-specific membrane antigen. Selected for oral presentation at highly prestigious ASCO 2020 and ASCO GU 2021 conferences. Second senior author of The Lancet paper (2021;397:797) (journal ranked top 1% general medicine). Has led to 2 additional RCTs of Lu-PSMA that I co-designed. One (ENZA-p) was just published in Lancet Oncol (2024 Apr 12:S1470-2045(24)00135-9) (journal ranked top 1% cancer research).
