Time-to-Event Summary Table with Stratified Analysis

TET

We will use the cadtte data set from the random.cdisc.data package for the time-to-event summary table. We start by filtering the adtte data set for the overall survival observations, converting time of overall survival to months, creating new variables for event and non-event information and binarizing the ARM variable.

Code

library(tern)
library(dplyr)

adtte <- random.cdisc.data::cadtte %>%
  df_explicit_na() %>%
  filter(
    PARAMCD == "OS"
  ) %>%
  mutate(
    AVAL = day2month(AVAL),
    AVALU = "Months",
    is_event = CNSR == 0,
    is_not_event = CNSR == 1,
    ARM_BIN = fct_collapse_only(
      ARM,
      CTRL = c("B: Placebo"),
      TRT = c("A: Drug X", "C: Combination")
    )
  )

We can add the summary of an analysis with Cox Proportional Hazards models stratified by SEX to the table above using coxph_pairwise().

Code

  split_cols_by(
    var = "ARM_BIN",
    ref_group = "CTRL"

    .stats = "count_fraction",
    .labels = c(count_fraction = "Patients with event (%)"),
    nested = FALSE,
    show_labels = "hidden"
  ) %>%
  analyze_vars(
    vars = "is_not_event",
    .stats = "count_fraction",
    .labels = c(count_fraction = "Patients without event (%)"),
    nested = FALSE,
    show_labels = "hidden"

    vars = "AVAL",
    var_labels = "Time to Event (months)",

    var_labels = c("Unstratified Analysis"),
    control = control_coxph(pval_method = "log-rank"),
    table_names = "coxph_unstratified"
