In ssutil: Sample Size Calculation Tools

ssutil

ssutil is an R package providing a suite of tools for sample size estimation and power simulation in a variety of clinical trial designs. It includes methods for binomial, normal, and negative binomial endpoints, as well as support for equivalence and non-inferiority testing scenarios. It also includes functionality for power and sample size calculation for selecting the best group using the indifference-zone approach for normal and binomial outcomes.

Features

• Empirical power simulation for:
• Binomial, normal, and negative binomial endpoints
• Equivalence and non-inferiority designs
• Best group selection using the indifference-zone approach for normal and binomial outcomes
• Sample size utilities for various design types

Installation

# Install from GitHub (requires remotes or devtools)
