In UnifiedDoseFinding: Dose-Finding Methods for Non-Binary Outcomes

Select the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) defined by Toxicity Burden (TB) Score for single agent trials using gBOIN design

Description

Select the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) defined by the toxicity burden (BT) score proposed by Bekele et al. (2004) when the trial is completed using the generalized Bayesian optimal interval (gBOIN) design (Mu et al. 2017). The algorithm of this function is exactly same to the Select_mtd_gBOIN.Continuous() just the input parameter is used by the TB score

Usage

select_mtd_gBOIN_TB(target, npts, ntox)

Arguments

target	the continuous target score
npts	the number of patients enrolled at each dose level
ntox	the toxicity score at each dose level

Value

select_mtd_gBOIN_TB() returns the selected dose
