KG4A

Change Color and Line Type in Kaplan-Meier Graph by Treatment Arm and Biomarker Subgroups

A setup similar to KG1 is used, with some additional data manipulation steps to first binarize the continuous biomarker and the treatment arm variables, and then combine both into a new interaction variable ARM_BMRKR2. Since we are using biomarker information, we filter on the biomarker evaluable population using the flag variable BEP01FL.

Code

library(tern)
library(dplyr)

adtte <- random.cdisc.data::cadtte %>%
  df_explicit_na() %>%
  filter(PARAMCD == "OS" & BEP01FL == "Y") %>%
  mutate(
    is_event = CNSR == 0,
    BMRKR2_BIN = fct_collapse_only(
      BMRKR2,
      High = c("HIGH"),
      Low = c("MEDIUM", "LOW")
    ),
    ARM_BIN = fct_collapse_only(
      ARM,
      CTRL = c("B: Placebo"),
      TRT = c("A: Drug X", "C: Combination")
    ),
    ARM_BMRKR2 = interaction(ARM_BIN, BMRKR2_BIN)
  )

variables <- list(tte = "AVAL", is_event = "is_event", arm = "ARM_BMRKR2")

We can customize the color and line type used in the graph with the col and lty arguments of g_km(). We can first check the level order of the ARM_BMRKR2 factor variable to know which color and line type order we need.

Code

levels(adtte$ARM_BMRKR2)

[1] "CTRL.High" "TRT.High"  "CTRL.Low"  "TRT.Low"

Code

g_km(
  df = adtte,
  variables = variables,
  annot_surv_med = TRUE,
  col = c("green", "orange", "green", "orange"),
  lty = c(5, 5, 3, 3)
)
