Minimal Clinically Important Differences in Pharmacological Trials

Abstract: The concept of a minimal clinically important difference (MCID) is well established. Here, we review the evidence base and methods used to define MCIDs as well as their strengths and limitations. Most MCIDs in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are empirically derived estimates applying to populations of patients. Validated MCIDs are available for many commonly used outcomes in COPD, including lung function (100 ml for trough FEV1), dyspnea (improvement of ≥ 1 unit in the Transition Dyspnea Index tot… Show more

“…Our MID results were obtained in the context of a pharmacological intervention and as such may not be applicable to other types of interventions [13], although it has been argued that the same MID values should be applied irrespective of the intervention [29]. All patients involved in this clinical trial had a background therapy of tiotropium and whether this may have influenced the MID results is uncertain.…”

“…Values for both beta-blockers were lower on 8 ICS vs ICS/LABA (Table 3), while for bisoprolol values were also lower on ICS/LABA vs ICS/LABA/LAMA. Changes in TDI were less than the minimal important difference of 1.0 unit (17).…”
