On identifying a positive dose-response surface for combination agents.

Abstract:

:This article concerns construction of a confidence surface for tangential slopes of the dose-response surface of a combination therapy to identify where response increases as a function of drug dosage. This approach extends to the assessment of the effectiveness of the combination therapy.

  • Multiple imputation using chained equations: Issues and guidance for practice.

    abstract::Multiple imputation by chained equations is a flexible and practical approach to handling missing data. We describe the principles of the method and show how to impute categorical and quantitative variables, including skewed variables. We give guidance on how to specify the imputation model and how many imputations ar...
