Examples
SampleSize
NB! Hypothesis types:
- :ea - Equality: two-sided;
- :ei - Equivalencens: two one-sided hypothesis (TOST);
- :ns - Non-Inferiority / Superiority: one-sided hypothesis, for some cases you should use two-sided hypothesis for Non-Inferiority/Superiority, you can use alpha/2 for this;
#Sample size for one proportion equality
ctsamplen(param=:prop, type=:ea, group=:one, a=0.3, b=0.5)
#Equivalence for two means
ctsamplen(param=:mean, type=:ei, group=:two, diff=0.3, sd=1, a=0.3, b=0.5)
#Odd ratio non-inferiority
ctsamplen(param=:or, type=:ns, diff=-0.1, a=0.3, b=0.5, k=2)
#Odd ratio equality
ctsamplen(param=:or, type=:ea, a=0.3, b=0.5, k=2)
Bioequivalence sample size
besamplen(alpha=0.05, theta1=0.8, theta2=1.25, theta0=0.95, cv=0.15, method=:owenq)
besamplen(cv=0.20, method=:nct)
besamplen(cv=0.347, design=:parallel)
besamplen(cv=0.40)
besamplen(cv=0.347, design=:d2x2x4, method=:nct)
Power
ctpower(param=:mean, type=:ea, group=:one, a=1.5, b=2, sd=1,n=32, alpha=0.05)
Bioequivalence power
#2x2 design, default method - OwensQ
bepower(alpha=0.05, logscale=true, theta1=0.8, theta2=1.25, theta0=0.95, cv=0.2, n=20, design=:d2x2, method=:owenq)
#Same
bepower(alpha=0.05, cv=0.2, n=20, design=:d2x2)
#Bioequivalence power for cv 14%, 21 subjects, default OwensQ method, logscale false
bepower(alpha=0.1, logscale=false, theta1=-0.1, theta2=0.1, theta0=0, cv=0.14, n=21)
#Bioequivalence power for cv 14%, 21 subjects, shifted method, logscale false
bepower(alpha=0.1, logscale=false, theta1=-0.1, theta2=0.1, theta0=0, cv=0.14, n=21, method=:shifted)
#Simple notations
bepower(cv=0.4, n=35, design=:d2x4x4)
bepower(cv=0.14, n=21)
Bioequivalence CV from CI
cvfromci(;alpha = 0.05, theta1 = 0.9, theta2 = 1.25, n=30, design=:d2x2x4)
Polled CV
data = DataFrame(cv = Float64[], df = Int[])
push!(data, (0.12, 12))
push!(data, (0.2, 20))
push!(data, (0.25, 30))
pooledcv(data; cv=:cv, df=:df, alpha=0.05, returncv=true)
pooledcv([0.12, 0.2, 0.25], [14, 22, 32], [:d2x2, :d2x2, :d2x2])
Confidence Intervals
using ClinicalTrialUtilities
ci = propci(38, 100, alpha=0.05, method=:cp)
ci = orpropci(30, 100, 40, 90; alpha=0.05, method=:mn)
ci = diffpropci(30, 100, 40, 90; alpha=0.05, method=:wald)
ci = meanci(30, 10, 30, alpha = 0.05, method=:norm)
NCA
using CSV, DataFrames, ClinicalTrialUtilities
pkdatapath = joinpath(dirname(pathof(ClinicalTrialUtilities)))*"\\..\\test\\csv\\pkdata2.csv"
pkdata = CSV.File(pkdatapath) |> DataFrame
pkds = pkimport(pkdata, [:Subject, :Formulation]; time = :Time, conc = :Concentration)
pk = nca!(pkds)
ncadf = DataFrame(pk; unst = true)
ds = ClinicalTrialUtilities.descriptive(ncadf, stats = [:n, :mean, :sd], sort = [:Formulation])
dsdf = ClinicalTrialUtilities.DataFrame(ds; unst = true)
Randomization
using DataFrames, ClinicalTrialUtilities
rt = ClinicalTrialUtilities.randomtable(;blocksize = 4, subject = 32, group = 2, ratio = [1,1], grseq = ["TR", "RT"], seed = 36434654652452)
