This repository is for storing standard scripts identified, developed and shared by volunteers who are interested in data transformations and analyses across and/or within a therapeutic area and exploratory analysis. The goal will be to begin the process of standardizing analyses across the industry, but also include examples of what can be done with a standardized data set. This will be a collaborative environment by using Google Code and online wiki to create and add scripts and documents that can be shared openly between industry entities and regulatory agencies.

Welcome to the CSS/PhUSE Standard Analyses. Our [https://github.com/phuse-org/phuse-scripts/|github repository] hosts standard scripts for data transformations and analyses across and within a therapeutic area, as well as for exploratory analyses. Our goal is to standardize analyses and code across the industry, and to provide other examples of how our industry can build upon standardized data set. We aim to establish this repository as the place to collaborate and share between industry and regulators.

In the repository, go to the sources tab and navigate to the appropriate directory.  The directories are organised by scripting language (e.g. R/SAS) and then into analytical or functional areas.  Inside each functional area (e.g. the DM directory for demographic scripts), there are 6 directories:
 
−
* baks: backup and old versions
 
−
* data: example or test data files
 
−
* docs: documentation

Committers will add scripts or packages of scripts as “Downloads” as appropriate.  “Downloads” are easily accessible packages of code that can be downloaded by anyone.

Introduction

Welcome to the CSS/PhUSE Standard Analyses. Our repository hosts standard scripts for data transformations and analyses across and within a therapeutic area, as well as for exploratory analyses. Our goal is to standardize analyses and code across the industry, and to provide other examples of how our industry can build upon standardized data set. We aim to establish this repository as the place to collaborate and share between industry and regulators.
