2D (2 Dimensional) TEQR design for Determining the optimal Dose for safety and efficacy.

ABSTRACT: Designs, such as the Eff-Tox, OBD (optimal biological dose), STEIN (simple efficacy toxicity interval), and TEPI (toxicity efficacy probability interval) designs, have been proposed to determine the optimal dose of a new oncology drug using both efficacy and toxicity. The goal of these designs is to select the optimal drug dose for further phase trials more accurately than dose finding designs that only consider toxicity, such as the 3 + 3, TEQR (toxicity equivalence range), mTPI (modified toxicity probability interval), and EWOC (escalation with overdose control) designs. We propose a new frequentist design for optimal dose selection, the 2D TEQR design, that is easier to understand and simpler to implement than the TEPI, Eff-Tox, STEIN and OBD designs, as it is based on the empirical or
