and spendingTime

The maximum number of stages.
The information rates.
Defaults to (1:kMax) / kMax
if left unspecified.
Indicators of whether efficacy stopping is allowed at each stage. Defaults to true if left unspecified.
Indicators of whether futility stopping is allowed at each stage. Defaults to true if left unspecified.
Upper boundaries on the z-test statistic scale for stopping for efficacy.
The significance level. Defaults to 0.025.
The type of alpha spending. One of the following: "OF" for O'Brien-Fleming boundaries, "P" for Pocock boundaries, "WT" for Wang & Tsiatis boundaries, "sfOF" for O'Brien-Fleming type spending function, "sfP" for Pocock type spending function, "sfKD" for Kim & DeMets spending function, "sfHSD" for Hwang, Shi & DeCani spending function, "user" for user defined spending, and "none" for no early efficacy stopping. Defaults to "sfOF".
The parameter value for the alpha spending. Corresponds to Delta for "WT", rho for "sfKD", and gamma for "sfHSD".
The user defined alpha spending. Cumulative alpha spent up to each stage.
Lower boundaries on the z-test statistic scale
for stopping for futility at stages 1, ..., kMax-1
. Defaults to
rep(-6, kMax-1)
if left unspecified. The futility bounds are
non-binding for the calculation of critical values.
The type of beta spending. One of the following: "sfOF" for O'Brien-Fleming type spending function, "sfP" for Pocock type spending function, "sfKD" for Kim & DeMets spending function, "sfHSD" for Hwang, Shi & DeCani spending function, and "none" for no early futility stopping. Defaults to "none".
The parameter value for the beta spending. Corresponds to rho for "sfKD", and gamma for "sfHSD".
The milestone time at which to calculate the survival probability.
The milestone survival probability under the null hypothesis.
A vector that specifies the starting time of
piecewise Poisson enrollment time intervals. Must start with 0, e.g.,
c(0, 3)
breaks the time axis into 2 accrual intervals:
[0, 3) and [3, Inf).
A vector of accrual intensities. One for each accrual time interval.
A vector that specifies the starting time of
piecewise exponential survival time intervals. Must start with 0, e.g.,
c(0, 6)
breaks the time axis into 2 event intervals:
[0, 6) and [6, Inf).
Defaults to 0 for exponential distribution.
A vector of stratum fractions that sum to 1. Defaults to 1 for no stratification.
A vector of hazard rates for the event in each analysis time interval by stratum under the alternative hypothesis.
The hazard rate for exponential dropout or a vector of hazard rates for piecewise exponential dropout. Defaults to 0 for no dropout.
Duration of the enrollment period.
Follow-up time for the last enrolled subject.
Whether a fixed follow-up design is used. Defaults to 0 for variable follow-up.
A vector of length kMax
for the error spending
time at each analysis. Defaults to missing, in which case, it is the
same as informationRates
.
Study duration for fixed follow-up design.
Defaults to missing, which is to be replaced with the sum of
accrualDuration
and followupTime
. If provided,
the value is allowed to be less than the sum of accrualDuration
and followupTime
.
