Graphical display of the general simulation summary

This plot method can be applied to GeneralSimulationsSummary objects in order to summarize them graphically. Possible types of plots at the moment are:

Usage

# S4 method for class 'GeneralSimulationsSummary,missing'
plot(x, y, type = c("nObs", "doseSelected", "propDLTs", "nAboveTarget"), ...)

Arguments

x

the GeneralSimulationsSummary object we want to plot from

y

missing

type

the types of plots you want to obtain.

...

not used

Value

A single ggplot object if a single plot is asked for, otherwise a gridExtra{gTree} object.

Details

nObs

Distribution of the number of patients in the simulated trials

doseSelected

Distribution of the final selected doses in the trials. Note that this can include zero entries, meaning that the trial was stopped because all doses in the dose grid appeared too toxic.

propDLTs

Distribution of the proportion of patients with DLTs in the trials

nAboveTarget

Distribution of the number of patients treated at doses which are above the target toxicity interval (as specified by the truth and target arguments to summary,GeneralSimulations-method)

You can specify any subset of these in the type argument.
