Returns summary statistics and p-values for a given data set and a given design.
getStageResults(design, dataInput, ..., stage = NA_integer_)
Returns a StageResults
object.
names
to obtain the field names,
print()
to print the object,
summary()
to display a summary of the object,
plot()
to plot the object,
as.data.frame()
to coerce the object to a data.frame
,
as.matrix()
to coerce the object to a matrix
.
The trial design.
The summary data used for calculating the test results.
This is either an element of DatasetMeans
, of DatasetRates
, or of DatasetSurvival
and should be created with the function getDataset()
.
For more information see getDataset()
.
Further (optional) arguments to be passed:
thetaH0
The null hypothesis value,
default is 0
for the normal and the binary case (testing means and rates, respectively),
it is 1
for the survival case (testing the hazard ratio).
For non-inferiority designs, thetaH0
is the non-inferiority bound.
That is, in case of (one-sided) testing of
means: a value != 0
(or a value != 1
for testing the mean ratio) can be specified.
rates: a value != 0
(or a value != 1
for testing the risk ratio pi1 / pi2
) can be specified.
survival data: a bound for testing H0:
hazard ratio = thetaH0 != 1
can be specified.
For testing a rate in one sample, a value thetaH0
in (0, 1) has to be specified for
defining the null hypothesis H0: pi = thetaH0
.
normalApproximation
The
type of computation of the p-values. Default is FALSE
for
testing means (i.e., the t test is used) and TRUE
for testing rates and the hazard ratio.
For testing rates, if normalApproximation = FALSE
is specified, the binomial test
(one sample) or the exact test of Fisher (two samples) is used for calculating the p-values.
In the survival setting, normalApproximation = FALSE
has no effect.
equalVariances
The type of t test. For testing means in two treatment groups, either
the t test assuming that the variances are equal or the t test without assuming this,
i.e., the test of Welch-Satterthwaite is calculated, default is TRUE
.
directionUpper
The direction of one-sided testing.
Default is TRUE
which means that larger values of the
test statistics yield smaller p-values.
intersectionTest
Defines the multiple test for the intersection
hypotheses in the closed system of hypotheses when testing multiple hypotheses.
Five options are available in multi-arm designs: "Dunnett"
, "Bonferroni"
, "Simes"
,
"Sidak"
, and "Hierarchical"
, default is "Dunnett"
.
Four options are available in population enrichment designs: "SpiessensDebois"
(one subset only),
"Bonferroni"
, "Simes"
, and "Sidak"
, default is "Simes"
.
varianceOption
Defines the way to calculate the variance in multiple treatment arms (> 2)
or population enrichment designs for testing means. For multiple arms, three options are available:
"overallPooled"
, "pairwisePooled"
, and "notPooled"
, default is "overallPooled"
.
For enrichment designs, the options are: "pooled"
, "pooledFromFull"
(one subset only),
and "notPooled"
, default is "pooled"
.
stratifiedAnalysis
For enrichment designs, typically a stratified analysis should be chosen.
For testing means and rates, also a non-stratified analysis based on overall data can be performed.
For survival data, only a stratified analysis is possible (see Brannath et al., 2009), default is TRUE
.
The stage number (optional). Default: total number of existing stages in the data input.

Note that you can use the R function methods
to get all the methods of a generic and
to identify the object specific name of it, e.g.,
use methods("plot")
to get all the methods for the plot
generic.
There you can find, e.g., plot.AnalysisResults
and
obtain the specific help documentation linked above by typing ?plot.AnalysisResults
.
Calculates and returns the stage results of the specified design and data input at the specified stage.
