Arguments

truth

A vector of 'true' p(DLT)'s, corresponding to the rows of 'doses'.

doses

A list containing doses on the original and log scale.

starting_dose

The row number of 'doses' corresponding to the starting dose.

route_through_doses

The row numbers of 'doses' corresponding to the doses used in the '3+3' design.

max_n_cohort

The maximum number of cohorts.

cohort_size

The number of patients per cohort.

n_sims

The number of simulations.

seed

The random number seed.

max_cohort_size

Maximum size of cohort. If this is reached, and the max_n or max_p_target is reached then the trial can stop.

max_n

Maximum total sample size. If this is reached and the max_cohort_size is reached for recommended dose then the trial can stop.

max_p_target

Maximum probability of targeted toxicity. If this is reached and the max_cohort_size is reached for recommended dose then the trial can stop.

add_random

Should some randomness be added to choice of next dose? Default is FALSE.

frac_target

If randomness is added, how close to the 'best' dose is acceptable. Default is 75 percent of P(target toxicity).

over_limit_end

The safety limit to be applied at the end of the trial

n_iter

Number of iterations in MCMC.

Value

A list of 4 items: a plot of the true p(DLTs), a graphical comparison of the 2 methods, a summary of model-based simulations, and a summary of rule-based simulations.
