Abstract:

In a standard two-stage adaptive oncology trial, an interim analysis is performed after Stage One for purposes of deciding whether to stop for futility or efficacy, or continue to Stage Two. The interim analysis is performed on the primary endpoint, typically progression-free survival (PFS) in the intent-to-treat (ITT) population. By using a Bayesian hierarchical probability model (BHM) in WinBUGS , the efficacy in tumor genotypes can also be taken into account. This approach allows for adaptation based not only on the observed primary PFS but also on observed PFS across tumor genotypes at the time of the interim analysis.
