They offer methodological advice and support to clinical teams and researcher, to develop, initiate, conduct, manage, analyze and report clinical studies. As such, this is a multidisciplinary committee which provide the other, disease-oriented I-BFM-SG Committees with its expertise for the successful implementation of studies in various fields of onco-hematology. IMMC role is particularly important in international projects which require a strong coordination activity.<\/p><p><strong>Scientific Aims<\/strong><\/p><p>Our main aim is to provide expertise and support in issues related to methodology for all scientific activities of the I-BFM. Focusing on clinical research, the tasks range from support in designing, coordinating, and executing\u00a0<em>clinical trials, <\/em>regulatory advice, support in data base design and implementation and issues related to statistical methodology from the statistical design, the analysis to the final publication.<\/p><p>The ongoing evolution in medicine as well as unaddressed methodologically needs, asks for refined and novel approaches of clinical trial operations, IT-support and statistical design and analysis. The IMMC aims to share experiences on methodological developments between the methodologists and between IMMC-members and the other I-BFM researchers and to provide state-of-the-art expertise.<\/p><p><strong>Open and completed clinical trials<\/strong><\/p><p>IMMC members are involved in many clinical trials and projects promoted within the I-BFM-SG. More details can be found in the pages dedicated to the ALL Committee, AML Committee, etc. International projects include the initiatives of the \u2018Ponte di Legno\u2019 consortium of ALL study groups, which are focused on the improvement of overall survival in uncommon subgroups of childhood ALL.<\/p><p><strong>Selected methodological publications<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p><p>The IMMC papers listed below represent a selection of papers on methodological\/statistical issues authored by IMMC members.
