get_boin: Get an object to fit the BOIN model using the BOIN package.

In escalation: A Modular Approach to Dose-Finding Clinical Trials

Get an object to fit the BOIN model using the BOIN package.

Description

Get an object to fit the BOIN model using the BOIN package.

Usage

get_boin(num_doses, target, use_stopping_rule = TRUE, ...)

Arguments

num_doses	Number of doses under investigation.
target	We seek a dose with this probability of toxicity.
use_stopping_rule	TRUE to use the toxicity stopping rule described in Yan et al. (2019). FALSE to suppress the authors' stopping rule, with the assumption being that you will test the necessity to stop early in some other way.
...	Extra args are passed to get.boundary.

Value

an object of type selector_factory that can fit the BOIN model to outcomes.
