Description

Calculate DLT probability corresponding to average nTTP for each dose

Usage

1
dlt.prob(dose, ntox, TOX, grade.thresh)

Arguments

dose

number of doses to be tested (scalar)

ntox

number (integer) of different toxicity types (e.g, hematological, neurological, GI)

TOX

matrix array of toxicity probabilities. There should be ntox matrices. Each matrix represents one toxicity type, where probabilities of each toxicity grade are specified across each dose. Each matrix has the same dimensions: n rows, representing number of doses, and 5 columns (for grades 0-4, since the probability of a grade 0 event may not be 0). Probabilities across each dose (rows) must sum to 1. See Ezzalfani et al. (2013) for details.

grade.thresh

grade (0-4) at which each toxicity type qualifies as a DLT

Value

ptox - Vector of DLT probabilities per dose.
