Sequential multiple assignment randomized trials (SMARTs) provide a systematic framework for constructing and evaluating dynamic treatment regimens (DTRs). In clinical studies, longitudinal biomarkers are routinely collected to monitor disease progression and define treatment response. However, the integration of longitudinal biomarker data into survival analysis for DTR evaluation within a SMART remains unexplored. We propose a joint longitudinal-survival framework to estimate DTR-specific survival outcomes within a two-stage SMART. A linear mixed model specifies the biomarker trajectory, and a relative risk model links the survival process to the current latent biomarker value. To accommodate the time-varying treatment assignment, treatment effects are parameterized through piecewise cumulative exposure terms with a structural change at the decision point. Joint-model parameters are estimated by maximum likelihood using pseudo-adaptive Gauss-Hermite quadrature for random-effect integration. Under standard causal identification assumptions, DTR-specific marginal survival outcomes are obtained through a plug-in parametric g-formula. We compare the joint-model framework to the inverse probability of treatment weighted Kaplan-Meier estimator and implement the multiple comparisons with the best method to identify the optimal DTR with multiplicity control. Through a simulation study and an application to a SMART for androgen-independent prostate cancer, we demonstrate that the joint-model framework produces unbiased estimates under correct model specification, with substantial efficiency gains and higher accuracy in optimal DTR identification. This framework exploits prognostic information from longitudinal biomarkers, enables valid causal inference for DTR-specific survival outcomes, and provides a generalizable analytic tool for developing evidence-based adaptive treatment strategies.
事件研究中的时变异质性处理效应
This paper examines the identification and estimation of heterogeneous treatment effects in event studies, emphasizing the importance of both lagged dependent variables and treatment effect heterogeneity. We show that omitting lagged dependent variables can induce omitted variable bias in the estimated time-varying treatment effects. We develop a novel semiparametric approach based on a short-T dynamic linear panel model with correlated random coefficients, where the…
针对原因特异绝对风险与生存曲线的一步目标最大似然估计
Summary This paper considers the one-step targeted maximum likelihood estimation methodology for multi-dimensional causal parameters in general survival and competing risk settings where event times take place on the positive real line and are subject to right censoring. We focus on effects of baseline treatment decisions possibly confounded by pretreatment covariates, but remark that our work generalizes to settings with time-varying treatment regimes and time-dependent…
纵向中介分析的目标最大似然估计
Causal mediation analysis with random interventions has become an area of significant interest for understanding time-varying effects with longitudinal and survival outcomes. To tackle causal and statistical challenges due to the complex longitudinal data structure with time-varying confounders, competing risks, and informative censoring, there exists a general desire to combine machine learning techniques and semiparametric theory. In this manuscript, we focus on targeted…
电子健康记录中的树式亚组发现:含 DTG 疗法的治疗效应异质性
The rich longitudinal individual level data available from electronic health records (EHRs) can be used to examine treatment effect heterogeneity. However, estimating treatment effects using EHR data poses several challenges, including time-varying confounding, repeated and temporally non-aligned measurements of covariates, treatment assignments and outcomes, and loss-to-follow-up due to dropout. Here, we develop the Subgroup Discovery for Longitudinal Data (SDLD) algorithm,…
自删失模型下信息性缺失的纵向因果推断
Longitudinal observational data are often subject to informative missingness. For example, in healthcare research using electronic health records, covariates and outcomes are measured only when patients interact with the healthcare system. Whether these data are observed usually depends on the unobserved variable values themselves, introducing a common form of data missing not at random. We develop identification and estimation methods for the effects of longitudinal…
fixest:快速且功能丰富的 R 计量估计框架
fixest is an R package for fast and flexible econometric estimation. It provides a unified framework for applied research, with comprehensive support for a diverse class of models: ordinary least squares, instrumental variables, generalized linear models, maximum likelihood, and difference-in-differences. The package particularly excels at fixed-effects estimation, supported by a novel fixed-point acceleration algorithm implemented in C++. This algorithm achieves rapid…
