Ever planned RCT w/ PFS and OS as formal endpoints?

Ever simulated PFS and OS for same set of patients?

In both cases: How did you model the fact that PFS and OS are highly dependent? E.g. we know that PFS <= OS and P(PFS = OS) > 0.

A (long) thread - but it' s worth it!

1/n
We are very used to model dependency of an endpoint over time (= group-sequential designs) or over nested populations (= enrichment designs), b/c then it's not difficult to write down correlation between test statistics.

However, typically in trial planning PFS and OS...

are treated as if they were independent and proportional hazards (PH) is assumed for both.

We propose to model dependency between PFS and OS using an illness-death multistate model (IDM), building on the work of Meller et al (2019) doi.org/10.1002/sim.82…

Going to break-down how easy it is to use #autoML and more specifically JADBio AutoML. If you need an account to try it out, head over to jadbio.com and grab a free Basic plan. Ready? #data #ML (1/16)
STEP 1: You start by creating a Project on JADBio and generating all your study #data. That could either be data that has been processed and normalized by a #Bioinformatician, or public data available in the known data repositories (2/16)
If you’re using software for #molecular diagnosis like our Partner’s @QIAGEN OmicSoft Lands platform, your data is ready to be uploaded on JADBio. #ML 3/16

*CONTEXT* Dynamic prediction models provide predicted probabilities that can be updated over time as data become available. There is growing interest in the use of #machinelearning 🤖; yet, their use in the context of dynamic survival #prediction has been limited.

*AIM* Show how #landmarking can be combined with a #machinelearning ensemble to improve prediction performance

*METHOD* Use of discrete time #survivalanalysis techniques to enable the use of #machinelearning algorithms for binary outcomes
