Abstract:
|
An adaptive seamless design combines a learn phase and a confirm phase together to reject or accept the global hypothesis. Adaptive treatment/dose selection is an important applications of seamless designs as poor dose selection and failure to collect information from early phase studies can cause negative result of a phase III clinical trial. Our work applies several closed multiple testing procedures to control the type I error rate in the setting of an adaptive two-stage design in which our primary interest is to compare multiple treatments with a control. We first review the general procedure to integrate Bonferroni-Holm type and Sims's test type multiple testing into a two stage adaptive dose selection design. Secondly, we use simulated examples to demonstrate advantages and disadvantages of such flexible design over traditional design (splitting learn phase and confirm phase).
