Summarize a Pmetrics Percent Target Attainment Object

Usage

# S3 method for PMpta
summary(object, at = "intersect", ci = 0.95, ...)

Arguments

object

A PMpta object made by makePTA.

at

Which object in the PM_pta result list to summarize. By default "intersect" if an intersection is present due to creation of the object with multiple target types, or 1 if no intersection is present, which means only 1 target type was selected. If "intersect" is present in the object, the default can be overridden with a number to summarize one of the individual PTAs, e.g. at = 2 to summarize the second PTA rather than the intersection of all the PTAs.

ci

Width of the interval for pharmacodynamic index reporting. Default is 0.95, i.e. 2.5th to 97.5th percentile.

...

Not used.

Value

A tibble with the following columns (only the first three if at = "intersect"):

  • sim_num is the number of the simulation

  • target is the target for the row, if targets are discrete, not used for simulated targets

  • label is the simulation label, for reference

  • prop_success is the proportion of simulated profiles that met the success definition

  • median is the median parmacodynamic index (PDI), i.e. the proportion or ratio depending on the target type

  • lower is the lower bound of the interval defined by ci

  • upper is the upper bound of the interval defined by ci

  • mean is the mean of the PDI

  • sd is the standard deviation of the PDI

  • min is the minimum PDI

  • max is the maximum PDI

Details

Summarize Pharmacodynamic Index (PDI) statistics and success proportions in a PMpta object made by makePTA and usually found in a PM_pta object. The PDI is the metric calculated by the target type and target, e.g. AUC/Target, or %time>target. Since a PDI cannot be calculated for intersections, summarizing the intersection object only provides the success proportion per simulation/target.
