simulate_arm: Simulate complete data for a single arm

In npsurvSS: Sample Size and Power Calculation for Common Non-Parametric Tests in Survival Analysis

Simulate complete data for a single arm

Description

Simulate the complete data for a single arm, including time to accrual, event, and loss of follow-up. No cutoff (by number of events or time) is applied. Hence, no patients are administratively censored.

Usage

simulate_arm(arm, label = 1)

Arguments

arm	object of class 'arm'.
label	numeric label for the simulated arm, e.g. 0 for control, 1 for treatment

Value

arm	label
time.accr	time to accrual
time.obs	time to observation from accrual
time.total	time to observation from start of study
censor	0=censor, 1=event
reason	event description ('[experience ]event', '[loss to ]followup', 'administration[ censoring]')
time.surv	time to event
time.loss	time to loss of follow-up

See Also

create_arm for creating an object of class 'arm'.

Examples

arm0 <- create_arm(size=120, accr_time=6, surv_scale=0.05, loss_scale=0.005, follow_time=12)
simulate_arm(arm0, label=0)
