In ph2rand: Randomized Phase II Oncology Trials with Bernoulli Outcomes

Description Usage Arguments Value See Also Examples

des_one_stage determines one-stage two-arm randomised clinical trial designs, assuming the primary outcome variable is Bernoulli distributed. It supports a flexible framework for specifying which scenarios to control the type-I and type-II error-rates for, and allows for design determination assuming a variety of test statistics. In all instances, des_one_stage computes the optimal required sample size in each arm, the associated optimal stopping boundaries, and returns information on key operating characteristics.

  type = "binomial",
  alpha = 0.1,
  beta = 0.2,

`type`	A `character` string indicating the chosen design framework/test statistic to assume. Must be one of `"barnard"`, `"binomial"`, `"fisher"`, or `"sat"`. Defaults to `"binomial"`.
`alpha`	A `numeric` indicating the chosen value for α, the significance level (i.e., the type-I error-rate). Defaults to `0.1`.
`beta`	A `numeric` indicating the chosen value for β, used in the definition of the desired power (i.e., the type-II error-rate). Defaults to `0.2`.
`delta`	A `numeric` indicating the chosen value for δ, the treatment effect assumed in the power calculation. Defaults to `0.2`.
`ratio`	A `numeric` indicating the chosen value for r, the allocation ratio to the experimental arm, relative to the control arm. Defaults to `1`.
`Pi0`	A `numeric` `vector` indicating the chosen value for Π₀, the control arm response rates to control the type-I error-rate to level α for. Must either be of `length` one, indicating a single point, or of `length` two. In this case, the elements indicate the range of possible response rates to allow for. Defaults to `0.1`.
`Pi1`	A `numeric` `vector` indicating the chosen value for Π₁, the control arm response rates to allow for in the power calculations. Must either be of `length` one, indicating a single point, or of `length` two. In this case, the elements indicate the range of possible response rates to allow for. Defaults to `Pi0[1]`.
`nCmax`	A `numeric` indicating the maximum value of the sample size in the control arm to consider in the search procedure. Defaults to `50L`.
`summary`	A `logical` variable indicating whether a summary of the function's progress should be printed to the console. Defaults to `FALSE`.

A list with additional class "ph2rand_des", containing each of the input parameters along with several additional variables, including

A list in the slot $boundaries giving the rejection boundary/boundaries of the optimal design. The names of these elements depends on the value of type.
A tibble in the slot $feasible summarising the operating characteristics of the feasible designs.
A numeric in the slot $nC giving the sample size in the control arm for the optimal design.
A numeric in the slot $nE giving the sample size in the experimental arm for the optimal design.
A tibble in the slot $opchar summarising the operating characteristics of the optimal design.
