[Selection of "surrogate" and "endpoints" evaluation of the efficacy of medical interventions].

With the advent of new medical technologies and medicines, as well as due to changes in disease patterns and demographic problems rises the need for continued increases in health spending. Increased costs can be totally inadequate, if it has been done without studying the effectiveness of medical interventions, based on the results of evidence-based medicine and economic of their feasibility. To evaluate the clinical effectiveness of medical interventions have been recently used specific criteria, so called points of clinical efficacy (surrogate and endpoints), that allow to conclude feasibility or harmfulness of the introduction or application of the intervention in clinical practice. The endpoint is reliable indicator the effectiveness of medical intervention. Surrogate point--is a biomarker that is intended to replace the endpoint and is a predictor of the effectiveness of medical intervention. The use of surrogate points has several advantages such as simple in identification and measurement, as well as more higher in compare with endpoints the vents frequency, that can significantly reduce the size of the selection and duration and cost of clinical trials, respectively. Finally, the surrogate points allow to evaluate treatment effect in situations where the use of endpoints is difficult or is unethical.
