PDXpower: Time to Event Outcome in Experimental Designs of Pre-Clinical Studies

Conduct simulation-based customized power calculation for clustered time to event data in a mixed crossed/nested design, where a number of cell lines and a number of mice within each cell line are considered to achieve a desired statistical power, motivated by Eckel-Passow and colleagues (2021) <doi:10.1093/neuonc/noab137> and Li and colleagues (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2404.08927>. This package provides two commonly used models for powering a design, linear mixed effects and Cox frailty model. Both models account for within-subject (cell line) correlation while holding different distributional assumptions about the outcome. Alternatively, the counterparts of fixed effects model are also available, which produces similar estimates of statistical power.
