| contents | The primary goal of a two-stage Phase I/II trial is to identify the optimal dose for the following large-scale Phase III trial. Recently, Phase I dose-finding designs have shifted from identifying the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) to the optimal biological dose (OBD). Typically, several doses are selected as recommended Phase II doses (RP2D) for further evaluation. In Phase II dose optimization trials, each RP2D is evaluated independently to determine its "go/no-go" decision. The optimal RP2D is then chosen from the remaining RP2Ds as the recommended Phase III dose (RP3D). The effectiveness of both dose-finding and dose optimization designs at two stages impacts RP3D selection. This paper reviews and compares fifteen Bayesian model-assisted two-stage designs, combining five Phase I dose-finding designs (BOIN, TITE-BOIN, BF-BOIN, BOIN12, and TITE-BOIN12) with three Phase II dose optimization designs (TS, BOP2, and TOP). We conduct extensive simulation studies to evaluate their performance under different dose-response scenarios, with and without the existence of the OBD. Based on our results, we recommend the TITE-BOIN12 + TOP combination as the optimal two-stage design for Phase I/II trials. |
