make_decision_trial: Checks whether decision criteria are met and updates trial results accordingly.

Description

Given a res_list object, checks the supplied decision criteria and saves the results in the res_list file.

Usage

make_decision_trial(
  res_list,
  which_cohort,
  Bayes_Sup1 = NULL,
  Bayes_Fut1 = NULL,
  Bayes_Sup2 = NULL,
  Bayes_Fut2 = NULL,
  w = 0.5,
  analysis_number,
  beta_prior = 0.5,
  hist_lag,
  endpoint_number,
  analysis_time,
  dataset,
  hist_miss = TRUE,
  sharing_type,
  ...
)

Arguments

res_list

List item containing individual cohort trial results so far in a format used by the other functions in this package

which_cohort

Current cohort that should be evaluated

Bayes_Sup1

List of matrices with rows corresponding to number of multiple Bayesian posterior two-arm combination criteria for superiority of histology endpoint 1

Bayes_Fut1

List of matrices with rows corresponding to number of multiple Bayesian posterior two-arm combination criteria for futility of histology endpoint 1

Bayes_Sup2

List of matrices with rows corresponding to number of multiple Bayesian posterior two-arm combination criteria for superiority of histology endpoint 2

Bayes_Fut2

List of matrices with rows corresponding to number of multiple Bayesian posterior two-arm combination criteria for futility of histology endpoint 2

w

If dynamic borrowing, what is the prior choice for w. Default is 0.5.

analysis_number

beta_prior

Prior parameter for all Beta Distributions. Default is 0.5.

hist_lag

Histology Lag

endpoint_number

Should histology endpoint 1 or 2 be evaluated?

analysis_time

Platform Time of Analysis

dataset

Dataset to be used for analysis

hist_miss

Whether or not to exclude missing histology data

sharing_type

Type of Data Sharing to perform

...

Further arguments inherited from simulate_trial

Value

List containing original res_list and results of decision rules
