SFG5B

Survival Forest Graph Comparing Categorical Biomarker Groups on Subgroups, including ITT

SFG

We prepare the data similarly as in SFG1.

Code

library(tern)
library(dplyr)

AGE_probs <- 0.5

adtte <- random.cdisc.data::cadtte %>%
  df_explicit_na() %>%
  filter(
    PARAMCD == "OS"
  ) %>%
  mutate(
    AVAL = day2month(AVAL),
    AVALU = "Months",
    is_event = CNSR == 0,
    ARM_BIN = fct_collapse_only(
      ARM,
      CTRL = "B: Placebo",
      TRT = c("A: Drug X", "C: Combination")
    ),
    AGE_BIN = cut_quantile_bins(AGE, probs = AGE_probs),
    BMRKR2 = fct_explicit_na_if(BMRKR2, BEP01FL == "N"),
    BMRKR2_BIN = fct_collapse_only(
      BMRKR2,
      High = "HIGH",
      Low = c("MEDIUM", "LOW")
    )
  ) %>%
  var_relabel(
    BEP01FL = "BEP",
    BMRKR2_BIN = "Biomarker (Binary)"
  )

We use the same tables_all() function above and combine all subtables using rbind() to tabulate statistics to be able to use as an input for forest plot.

Code

tables_all <- function(filter_var, filter_condition, sub_var) {
  dataset <- adtte %>%
    filter(!!as.name(filter_var) == filter_condition)
  if (nrow(dataset) == 0) {
    stop(paste("Subset", filter_var, "==", filter_condition, "is empty"))
  }
  tbl <- extract_survival_subgroups(
    variables = list(
      tte = "AVAL",
      is_event = "is_event",
      arm = "ARM_BIN",
      subgroups = sub_var
    ),
    label_all = "ITT",
    data = dataset
  )
  basic_table() %>%
    tabulate_survival_subgroups(
      df = tbl,
      vars = c("n_tot_events", "n", "n_events", "median", "hr", "ci"),
      time_unit = dataset$AVALU[1]
    )
}

add_subtitle <- function(sub_tab, sub_title) {
  label_at_path(sub_tab, path = row_paths(sub_tab)[[1]][1]) <- sub_title
  sub_tab
}

tables_list <- list(
  tables_all(filter_var = "SEX", filter_condition = "F", sub_var = c("BEP01FL", "BMRKR2_BIN")),
  tables_all(filter_var = "SEX", filter_condition = "M", sub_var = c("BEP01FL", "BMRKR2_BIN")),
  tables_all(filter_var = "AGE_BIN", filter_condition = "[0%,50%]", sub_var = c("BEP01FL", "BMRKR2_BIN")),
  tables_all(filter_var = "AGE_BIN", filter_condition = "(50%,100%]", sub_var = c("BEP01FL", "BMRKR2_BIN"))
)

We can now produce the forest plot using the g_forest() function.

Code

one_table <- tables_list[[1]]
result <- rbind(
  add_subtitle(tables_list[[1]], "SEX = F"),
  add_subtitle(tables_list[[2]], "SEX = M"),
  add_subtitle(tables_list[[3]], "AGE_BIN = [0%,50%]"),
  add_subtitle(tables_list[[4]], "AGE_BIN = (50%,100%]")
)
g_forest(
  result,
  col_x = attr(one_table, "col_x"),
  col_ci = attr(one_table, "col_ci"),
  forest_header = attr(one_table, "forest_header"),
  col_symbol_size = attr(one_table, "col_symbol_size")
)
