We consider multivariate tests for comparing two treatments with multiple endpoints. The test decision is drawn from the simultaneous consideration of the univariate tests for the single endpoints. A general class of these tests, called cut-off tests, can be given, which, however, can lead to highly conservative procedures because the dependencies among the endpoints are not taken into account. In applying resampling-based methods considerable improvements for these tests can be achieved. Resampling-based cut-off tests are proposed which are sensitive against a treatment difference in a single endpoint, in a subgroup of endpoints, or in all endpoints. The results of Monte Carlo simulations demonstrate that a remarkable gain in statistical power as compared to the crude simultaneous consideration can be reached. In particular, for the multivariate one-sided test situation the proposed tests can be recommended. As an example the application of the tests is demonstrated by data from a clinical trial.
