This study introduces a new generalized estimating equations (GEE) approach to model the concordance correlation coefficient for assessing reproducibility in clinical studies. This method enhances reproducibility analysis by allowing covariate adjustment and accommodating multiple correlated measurements.

Area of Science:

  • Biostatistics
  • Clinical Trials Methodology
  • Reproducibility Studies

Background:

  • Assessing agreement between raters/methods is crucial in clinical studies.
  • Concordance correlation coefficient (CCC) is a popular measure for reproducibility.
  • Existing CCC methods have limitations in covariate adjustment and handling repeated measures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a novel generalized estimating equations (GEE) approach for modeling the concordance correlation coefficient (CCC).
  • To extend CCC analysis to accommodate covariate adjustment and multiple correlated measurements.
  • To provide a flexible framework for assessing reproducibility in complex study designs.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a GEE approach to model the CCC.

  • Utilizing three sets of estimating equations for flexibility.
  • Incorporation of covariates predictive of marginal distribution and concordance.
  • Simulation study to evaluate asymptotic properties.
  • Main Results:

    • The proposed GEE approach effectively models the CCC.
    • The method accommodates more than two correlated readings and tests equality of dependent CCC estimates.
    • Covariates predictive of marginal distribution and concordance can be incorporated.
    • Minimal distribution assumptions are required.

    Conclusions:

    • The GEE approach offers a flexible and robust method for modeling CCC in clinical studies.
    • This approach enhances the ability to adjust for covariates and analyze complex data structures.
    • The method is applicable to various biomedical studies requiring reproducibility assessment.
