R: Calculate planning quantities for MCPMod
planMMR Documentation

Calculate planning quantities for MCPMod

Description

Calculates the optimal model contrasts, the critical value and the contrast correlation matrix, i.e. the quantities necessary to conduct the multiple contrast test for a given candidate set of dose-response models.

Usage

planMM(models, doses, n, off = 0.1 * max(doses), scal = 1.2 * max(doses),
       std = TRUE, alpha = 0.025, twoSide = FALSE,
       control = mvtnorm.control(), cV = TRUE, muMat = NULL)

Arguments

models

A list of candidate models

doses

A numeric vector giving the doses to be administered.

n

The vector of sample sizes per group. In case just one number is specified, it is assumed that all group sample sizes are equal to this number.

off

Offset parameter for the linear in log model (default 10 perc of the maximum dose).

scal

Scale parameter for the beta model (default 20 perc. larger than maximum dose).

std

Optional logical indicating, whether standardized version of the models should be assumed.

alpha

Level of significance (default: 0.025)

twoSide

Logical indicating whether a two sided or a one-sided test should be performed. By default FALSE, so one-sided testing.

control

A list of options for the pmvt and qmvt functions as produced by mvtnorm.control

cV

Logical indicating whether critical value should be calculated

muMat

An optional matrix with means in the columns and given dimnames (dose levels and names of contrasts). If specified the models argument should not be specified, see examples below.

Value

An object of class planMM with the following components:

contMat

Matrix of optimal contrasts.

critVal

The critical value for the test (if calculated)

muMat

Matrix of (non-normalized) model means

corMat

Matrix of the contrast correlations.

# Example from JBS paper
doses <- c(0,10,25,50,100,150)
models <- list(linear = NULL, emax = 25,                               
               logistic = c(50, 10.88111), exponential= 85,            
               betaMod=matrix(c(0.33,2.31,1.39,1.39), byrow=TRUE, nrow=2))
plM <- planMM(models, doses, n = rep(50,6), alpha = 0.05, scal=200)
plot(plM)
