Vignettes

Developed for practical use: below you find a collection of practical examples and use-cases, the so-called rpact vignettes.

In addition to these public open access vignettes, our RPACT SLA customers have access to exclusive vignettes on special topics such as the analysis of multi-stage data with covariates from raw data.

8 Defining Accrual Time and Accrual Intensity with rpact Utilities Survival

This R Markdown document provides a technical view on the different alternatives to define accrual time and accrual intensity with rpact.

17 How to Create Summaries with rpact Utilities Categorical, Continuous, Survival

This R Markdown document provides many different examples that illustrate the usage of the R generic function summary with rpact. This is a technical vignette and is to be considered mainly as a comprehensive overview of the possible summaries in rpact.

13 Using the Inverse Normal Combination Test for Analysing a Trial with Continuous Endpoint and Potential Sample Size Re-Assessment with rpact Analysis Continuous

This R Markdown document provides an example for analysing trials with a continuous endpoint and sample size reassessment using rpact.

21 Analysis of a Multi-Arm Design with a Binary Endpoint using rpact Analysis Categorical

This R Markdown document shows how to analyse and interpret multi-arm designs for testing proportions with rpact.

7 Analysis of a Group Sequential Trial with a Survival Endpoint using rpact Analysis Survival

This R Markdown document provides examples how to analyse a survival trial and provide inference throughout and at the end of the trial with rpact.

14 Planning a Trial with Binary Endpoints with rpact Planning Categorical

This R Markdown document provides an example for planning a trial with a binary endpoint using rpact. It also illustrates the use of ggplot2 for illustrating the characteristics of a sample size recalculation strategy. Another example for planning a trial with binary endpoints can be found in the vignette Designing group sequential trials with a binary endpoint with rpact.
