PwrGSD (version 2.3.3)

Power in a Group Sequential Design

Description

Tools for the evaluation of interim analysis plans for sequentially monitored trials on a survival endpoint; tools to construct efficacy and futility boundaries, for deriving power of a sequential design at a specified alternative, template for evaluating the performance of candidate plans at a set of time varying alternatives. See Izmirlian, G. (2014) .
