Arguments

object

the PseudoDualFlexiSimulations object we want to summarize

trueDLE

a function which takes as input a dose (vector) and returns the true probability of DLE (vector)

trueEff

a vector which takes as input the true mean efficacy values at all dose levels (in order)

targetEndOfTrial

the target probability of DLE that are used at the end of a trial. Default at 0.3.

targetDuringTrial

...

Additional arguments can be supplied here for trueDLE and trueEff

Value

Examples

# nolint start

## If DLE and efficacy responses are considered in the simulations and the 'EffFlexi' class is used
## we need a data object with doses >= 1:
data <- DataDual(doseGrid = seq(25, 300, 25))
## First for the DLE model
## The DLE model must be of 'ModelTox' (e.g 'LogisticIndepBeta') class
DLEmodel <- LogisticIndepBeta(
  binDLE = c(1.05, 1.8),
  DLEweights = c(3, 3),
  DLEdose = c(25, 300),
  data = data
)

## for the efficacy model
Effmodel <- EffFlexi(
  eff = c(1.223, 2.513), eff_dose = c(25, 300),
  sigma2W = c(a = 0.1, b = 0.1), sigma2betaW = c(a = 20, b = 50), rw1 = FALSE, data = data
)


## specified the next best
mynextbest <- NextBestMaxGainSamples(
  prob_target_drt = 0.35,
  prob_target_eot = 0.3,
  derive = function(samples) {
    as.numeric(quantile(samples, prob = 0.3))
  },
  mg_derive = function(mg_samples) {
    as.numeric(quantile(mg_samples, prob = 0.5))
  }
)

## The increments (see Increments class examples)
## 200% allowable increase for dose below 300 and 200% increase for dose above 300
myIncrements <- IncrementsRelative(
  intervals = c(25, 300),
  increments = c(2, 2)
)
## cohort size of 3
mySize <- CohortSizeConst(size = 3)
## Stop only when 10 subjects are treated:
## very low sample size is just for illustration here
myStopping <- StoppingMinPatients(nPatients = 10)

## Specified the design
design <- DualResponsesSamplesDesign(
  nextBest = mynextbest,
  cohort_size = mySize,
  startingDose = 25,
  model = DLEmodel,
  eff_model = Effmodel,
  data = data,
  stopping = myStopping,
  increments = myIncrements
)
## specified the true DLE curve and the true expected efficacy values at all dose levels
myTruthDLE <- probFunction(DLEmodel, phi1 = -53.66584, phi2 = 10.50499)

myTruthEff <- c(
  -0.5478867, 0.1645417, 0.5248031, 0.7604467,

  1.3529598, 1.4233411, 1.4858613, 1.5420182
)


## specify the options for MCMC
# For illustration purpose, we use 10 burn-in and generate 100 samples
options <- McmcOptions(burnin = 10, step = 1, samples = 100)
## The simulation
## For illustration purpose only 1 simulation is produced (nsim=1).
mySim <- simulate(
  object = design,
  args = NULL,
  trueDLE = myTruthDLE,
  trueEff = myTruthEff,
  trueSigma2 = 0.025,
  trueSigma2betaW = 1,
  nsim = 1,

## summarize the simulation results
