Trial level surrogates are useful tools for improving the speed and cost effectiveness of trials, but surrogates that have not been properly evaluated can cause misleading results. The evaluation procedure is often contextual and depends on the type of trial setting. There have been many proposed methods for trial level surrogate evaluation, but none, to our knowledge, for the specific setting of Bayesian adaptive platform studies. As adaptive studies are becoming more popular, methods for surrogate evaluation using them are needed. These studies also offer a rich data resource for surrogate evaluation that would not normally be possible. However, they also offer a set of statistical issues including heterogeneity of the study population, treatments, implementation, and even potentially the quality of the surrogate. We propose the use of a hierarchical Bayesian semiparametric model for the evaluation of potential surrogates using nonparametric priors for the distribution of true effects based on Dirichlet process mixtures. The motivation for this approach is to flexibly model relationships between the treatment effect on the surrogate and the treatment effect on the outcome and also to identify potential clusters with differential surrogate value in a data-driven manner. In simulations, we find that our proposed method is superior to a simple, but fairly standard, hierarchical Bayesian method. We demonstrate how our method can be used in a simulated illustrative example (based on the ProBio trial), in which we are able to identify clusters where the surrogate is, and is not useful. We plan to apply our method to the ProBio trial, once it is completed.

Bayesian additive regression trees (BART) provide a class of flexible nonparametric regressions in machine learning. Their rich tree-based structure can generate non-Donsker classes of regression functions. We study posterior inference for the population mean under missing at random. We derive a new Bernstein-von Mises (BvM) theorem showing that even a one-step posterior based on BART and Bayesian-bootstrap reweighting retains a non-negligible bias term in the non-Donsker…
NP-LEAP:借用历史数据的非参数潜在可交换性先验
Bayesian dynamic borrowing (BDB) methods leverage historical data to reduce treatment effect uncertainty, yet existing approaches rely on parametric outcome models susceptible to misspecification. We propose the nonparametric latent exchangeability prior (NP-LEAP), an outcome-agnostic, assumption-lean framework to borrow information from historical data. The NP-LEAP performs individual-level exchangeability assessment, inducing Bayesian model averaging over all possible…

Causal inference increasingly extends beyond classical causal effects defined by deterministic treatment assignments, such as the average treatment effect, to stochastic intervention effects that can weaken positivity requirements and offer greater policy relevance. Nonparametric Bayesian models are attractive for estimating these effects due to their flexibility and inherent uncertainty propagation, but this posterior uncertainty need not be well calibrated for the causal…
采用局部—全局收缩的非正态变换有向无环图半参数贝叶斯结构学习
Bayesian structure learning of directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) is central to high-dimensional causal discovery, yet existing methods mostly assume multivariate Gaussian data, which is routinely violated by measurements displaying heavy tails, skewness, or bounded support. We address this by introducing NPN-DAG-HS, a fully Bayesian semiparametric DAG model coupling the nonparanormal family with horseshoe shrinkage on Cholesky off-diagonals via an extended-rank likelihood. This…
BayesFBHborrow:基于灵活基线风险的生存数据贝叶斯信息借用 R 包
Statistical methods that leverage external trial information to help accelerate drug development are becoming increasingly popular. Bayesian methods facilitate dynamic borrowing, where the similarity of the response guides how much information is used. We have proposed a semiparametric Bayesian borrowing model for time-to-event data, with smoothing priors that allows the baseline hazard to take any form via an ensemble average. By accurately modelling the baseline hazard,…
存在因果中介时个体化治疗规则的半参数与非参数方法
Individualized treatment rules (ITRs) map an individual patient's characteristics to their recommended treatment value. Typically, the optimal ITR is defined as the rule which maximizes a mean counterfactual outcome; the resulting ITR maximizes the effect of treatment along all causal pathways to the outcome, including indirect pathways through mediating variables. Although maximizing the total effect is often sufficient, explicitly incorporating causal mediation in an ITR…
