In crmPack: Object-Oriented Implementation of CRM Designs

Summarize the dual-endpoint design simulations, relative to given true dose-toxicity and dose-biomarker curves

Description

Summarize the dual-endpoint design simulations, relative to given true dose-toxicity and dose-biomarker curves

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'DualSimulations'
summary(object, trueTox, trueBiomarker, target = c(0.2, 0.35), ...)

Arguments

object	the DualSimulations object we want to summarize
trueTox	a function which takes as input a dose (vector) and returns the true probability (vector) for toxicity.
trueBiomarker	a function which takes as input a dose (vector) and returns the true biomarker level (vector).
target	the target toxicity interval (default: 20-35%) used for the computations
...	Additional arguments can be supplied here for trueTox and trueBiomarker

Value

an object of class DualSimulationsSummary
