Group sequential design power using MaxCombo test under non-proportional hazards

Usage

gs_power_combo(
  enrollRates = tibble(Stratum = "All", duration = 12, rate = 500/12),
  failRates = tibble(Stratum = "All", duration = c(4, 100), failRate = log(2)/15, hr =
    c(1, 0.6), dropoutRate = 0.001),
  fh_test = rbind(data.frame(rho = 0, gamma = 0, tau = -1, test = 1, Analysis = 1:3,
    analysisTimes = c(12, 24, 36)), data.frame(rho = c(0, 0.5), gamma = 0.5, tau = -1,
    test = 2:3, Analysis = 3, analysisTimes = 36)),
  ratio = 1,
  binding = FALSE,
  upper = gs_b,
  upar = c(3, 2, 1),
  lower = gs_b,
  lpar = c(-1, 0, 1),
  algorithm = GenzBretz(maxpts = 1e+05, abseps = 1e-05),
  ...
)

Arguments

enrollRates

enrollment rates

failRates

failure and dropout rates

fh_test

a data frame to summarize the test in each analysis. Refer examples for its data structure.

ratio

Experimental:Control randomization ratio (not yet implemented)

binding

indicator of whether futility bound is binding; default of FALSE is recommended

upper

Function to compute upper bound

upar

Parameter passed to upper()

lower

Function to compute lower bound

lpar

Parameter passed to lower()

algorithm

an object of class GenzBretz, Miwa or TVPACK specifying both the algorithm to be used as well as the associated hyper parameters.

...

additional parameters transfer to mvtnorm::pmvnorm
