Abstract:
|
One of the challenges for Benefit:Risk analysis is to develop tools to help decision-makers analyze the benefits and risks of products while properly characterizing the uncertainty of the estimates of benefits and risks. We have developed a three-dimensional visualization tool where the height of the surface represents the probability that the treatment has a particular risk-benefit coordinate. We provide examples using hypothetical and actual data to map multiple risks and benefits to three-dimensional surfaces based on a user-defined weight matrix to put risks and benefits in a common unit. The visualization tool allows users to compare two therapeutics. The tool shows key properties of distributions that may affect decision-making; integrates data on multiple properties of a medical product; and encourages stakeholders to interact with the visualization to explore what-if scenarios.
