• Prior oncology clinical trial experience, including familiarity with standard response criteria (e.g., RECIST 1.1), oncology endpoints (e.g., overall survival, progression-free survival, objective response rate), and associated statistical methodology (e.g., survival/time-to-event analysis, group sequential and adaptive designs).
• Experience supporting regulatory submissions (e.g., NDA, BLA) is a strong plus.
• Experience managing CROs and external statistical vendors, including oversight of outsourced statistical deliverables, is a plus.
• Proficiency in statistical programming languages (e.g., SAS, R); experience using simulation to support trial design is a plus.
• Knowledge of CDISC data standards (SDTM and ADaM).
• Knowledge of drug submission requirements and relevant ICH and FDA/EMA guidelines, including the ICH E9(R1) estimand framework.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills, including the ability to convey complex statistical concepts to cross-functional, non-statistical audiences.
