h_jags_join_models

<a href="https://lifecycle.r-lib.org/articles/stages.html#stable"><img src="figures/lifecycle-stable.svg?package=crmPack&version=2.0.0" alt="[Stable]"></a>
This helper function joins two JAGS models in the way that the body of the
second model is appended to the body of the first model (in this order).
After that, the first, body-extended model is returned. The arguments of
<code>model1</code>, <code>model2</code> model functions (if any) are not combined in any way.

Implements a wide range of dose escalation
designs. The focus is on model-based designs, ranging from classical and
modern continual reassessment methods (CRMs) based on dose-limiting toxicity
endpoints to dual-endpoint designs taking into account a biomarker/efficacy
outcome. Bayesian inference is performed via MCMC sampling in JAGS, and it is easy
to setup a new design with custom JAGS code. However, it is also possible to
implement 3+3 designs for comparison or models with non-Bayesian estimation.
The whole package is written in a modular form in the S4 class system, making it
very flexible for adaptation to new models, escalation or stopping rules.
Further details are presented in
Sabanes Bove et al. (2019) <doi:10.18637/jss.v089.i10>.
