summarize_weights

Summarize the Distribution of Weight Values

A generalised workflow for Matching-Adjusted Indirect
Comparison (MAIC) analysis, which supports both anchored and
non-anchored MAIC methods. In MAIC, unbiased trial outcome comparison
is achieved by weighting the subject-level outcomes of the
intervention trial so that the weighted aggregate measures of
prognostic or effect-modifying variables match those of the comparator
trial. Measurements supported include time-to-event (e.g., overall
survival) and binary (e.g., objective tumor response). The method is
described in Signorovitch et al. (2010)
<doi:10.2165/11538370-000000000-00000> and Signorovitch et al. (2012)
<doi:10.1016/j.jval.2012.05.004>.
