Multi-objective optimal designs in comparative clinical trials with covariates: The reinforced doubly adaptive biased coin design
含协变量临床试验的多目标最优设计:强化双重自适应偏币设计
The present paper deals with the problem of allocating patients to two competing treatments in the presence of covariates or prognostic factors in order to achieve a good trade-off among ethical concerns, inferential precision and randomness in the treatment allocations. In particular we suggest a multipurpose design methodology that combines efficiency and ethical gain when the linear homoscedastic model with both treatment/covariate interactions and interactions among…
