RaBIt:An Effective Visualization-Driven Tool for Power and Sample Size Estimation in Two-Stage General Randomized Basket Trial Designs

Abstract

Basket trial designs with interim analysis have gained significant attention due to their adaptability, flexibility, and scalability. In response to the need for user-friendly tools that enhance the real-world applicability of these designs, we developed a web-based interface aimed at facilitating two-stage basket trial designs. Built using R Shiny, the tool was rigorously validated for output consistency by comparing it to an established R pipeline. Additionally, user testing was conducted to ensure the interface is intuitive and easy to use. The result is a freely accessible tool that provides effective and convenient visualizations for general basket trial designs with interim analysis, available at https://desmondzeyachen.shinyapps.io/AdaptiveTwoStageBasketTrialFeb14/. Future improvements may further expand the tool's capabilities to accommodate the increasing complexity of trial designs needed by the research community.

Author Declarations

I confirm all relevant ethical guidelines have been followed, and any necessary IRB and/or ethics committee approvals have been obtained.

Yes

I confirm that all necessary patient/participant consent has been obtained and the appropriate institutional forms have been archived, and that any patient/participant/sample identifiers included were not known to anyone (e.g., hospital staff, patients or participants themselves) outside the research group so cannot be used to identify individuals.

Yes

I understand that all clinical trials and any other prospective interventional studies must be registered with an ICMJE-approved registry, such as ClinicalTrials.gov. I confirm that any such study reported in the manuscript has been registered and the trial registration ID is provided (note: if posting a prospective study registered retrospectively, please provide a statement in the trial ID field explaining why the study was not registered in advance).

Yes

I have followed all appropriate research reporting guidelines, such as any relevant EQUATOR Network research reporting checklist(s) and other pertinent material, if applicable.

Yes
