sample_size_3arm_binary {frequentistSSDBinary}R Documentation

Calculate the sample size for each arm in a three-arm study

Description

Calculate the sample size for each arm in a three-arm trial

Usage

sample_size_3arm_binary(p0, p1, p2, p3, diff = 0, selection.prob = 0.9, alpha = 0.1,
                 beta = 0.2)

Arguments

p0

the response rate of historical control arm

p1

the response rate of arm 1

p2

the response rate of arm 2

p3

the response rate of arm 3

diff

the equivalence margin. The default value is diff = 0

selection.prob

the probability of selection of a superior arm. The default value is selection.prob = 0.9

alpha

the type I error to be controlled. The default value is alpha = 0.1

beta

the type II error to be controlled. The default value is beta = 0.2

Value

sample_size_3arm_binary() returns required sample size for each arm
