Obtain design parameters, type I error, power and operating characteristics of the Bayesian Single-Arm Phase II Trial Designs with Time-to-Event Endpoints (Wu et al. 2021). The exponential distribution is assumed for the survival time. The gamma prior is used here

optimal_OneStage(alphacutoff, powercutoff, S0,
                 x, ta, tf, a = 2, delta, ntrial,
                 complete = "partial", seed = 8232)

`alphacutoff`	the desired type I error to be controlled
`powercutoff`	the desired power to be achieved
`S0`	the survival probability at timepoint x
`x`	the survival probability S0 at timepoint x
`ta`	accrual duration
`tf`	follow-up duration
`a`	shape parameter of prior distribution. The default value is a = 2
`delta`	hazard ratio
`ntrial`	the number of simulated trials
`complete`	whether output the full or partial information. The default value is complete = "partial". If want to show full results, it would be complete = "complete"
`seed`	the seed. The default value is seed = 8232

optimal_OneStage() depending on the argument "complete", it returns a vector of partial information/complete information which includes:

partial information: (1) m: number of events of the whole design (2) n: number of patients of the whole design (3) k: total observation time of the whole design (4) typeI: type I error of the whole design (5) power: power of the whole design (6) ES1: expected sample size under alternative hypothesis (7) ES0: expected sample size under null hypothesis

full information: (1) eta: cutoff point of "Go" at final stage of analysis (2) zeta: cutoff point of "no-Go" at final stage of analysis (3) m: number of events of the whole design (4) n: number of patients of the whole design (5) k: total observation time of the whole design (6) typeI: type I error of the whole design (7) power: power of the whole design (8) ES1: expected sample size under alternative hypothesis (9) ES0: expected sample size under null hypothesis

### Design 1

# H0 vs. H1: 17% vs. 40% (4-month PFS)
# that is, S0 = 0.17, and hazard ratio, e.g., delta = 0.517
# x = 4

optimal_OneStage(alphacutoff = 0.1, powercutoff = 0.8,
                 S0 = 0.17, x = 4, ta = 6, tf = 6,
                 delta = 0.517, ntrial = 10)

### Design 2

# H0 vs. H1: 17% vs. 30% (4-month PFS)
# that is, S0 = 0.17, and hazard ratio, e.g., delta = 0.679
# x = 4

optimal_OneStage(alphacutoff = 0.1, powercutoff = 0.8,
                 S0 = 0.17, x = 4, ta = 6, tf = 6,
                 delta = 0.679, ntrial = 10)
