This study presents a general method for optimizing clinical trial designs with multiple objectives. The graphical method of Cook and Wong is shown to be effective for trials with two objectives, aiding in treatment group comparisons.

Area of Science:

  • Clinical trial design
  • Biostatistics
  • Experimental design

Background:

  • Clinical trials often involve multiple objectives of varying importance.
  • Selecting an optimal trial design that balances these objectives is crucial for efficient research.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To discuss a general method for finding optimal clinical trial designs with multiple objectives.
  • To demonstrate the applicability of the graphical method of Cook and Wong for two-objective designs.

Main Methods:

  • The study discusses a general framework for optimal design selection.
  • It specifically applies and illustrates the graphical method of Cook and Wong for cases with two objectives.

Main Results:

  • The graphical method of Cook and Wong is suitable for optimizing clinical trial designs with two objectives.
