We developed a new method to assess response-adaptive randomization in clinical trials. The doubly adaptive biased coin design is recommended for practical use due to its optimal allocation and power.

Area of Science:

  • Clinical Trials
  • Biostatistics
  • Medical Research

Background:

  • Response-adaptive randomization balances treatment arms based on accumulating data.
  • Evaluating these adaptive procedures is crucial for optimizing clinical trial efficiency and ethical considerations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce an explicit asymptotic method for evaluating response-adaptive randomization procedures.
  • To compare the performance of four distinct response-adaptive randomization methods.
  • To identify the most effective procedure for practical clinical trial application.

Main Methods:

  • Development of an explicit asymptotic method for performance evaluation.
  • Theoretical evaluation of power and treatment assignment bias for four procedures.

  • Verification of theoretical results through simulation studies.
  • Consideration of delayed and non-standard response data (e.g., Cauchy distribution).

    • Main Results:

    • The doubly adaptive biased coin design (DABDC) procedure demonstrates superior performance.
    • DABDC exhibits optimal allocation and enhanced power compared to other methods.
    • The method is robust to delayed responses and non-standard response distributions.

    Conclusions:

    • The doubly adaptive biased coin design is the recommended procedure for practical clinical trials.
    • The developed asymptotic method provides a robust framework for evaluating adaptive randomization.
    • The findings are illustrated through the redesign of an actual clinical trial.
