摘要: 目的: 介绍一种新颖的I期临床试验模型辅助设计方法——贝叶斯最优区间设计(BOIN Design, Bayesian optimal interval design),包括其实施流程、实际应用等,并评价其表现。方法: 在贝叶斯理论框架下,BOIN设计以最小化错误决策概率为目的,推导需增减剂量时的容忍毒性边界值,并通过比较实际毒性率与该边界值决定剂量转变。以真实案例详解其实施流程。通过与现有设计方法的对比评价BOIN的表现。结果: BOIN设计具有最优化、安全、稳健、简单实用等性质。模拟实验表明,BOIN设计能够更精准地识别最大耐受剂量(maximum tolerated dose, MTD)。结论: BOIN设计具有与基于模型设计相仿的统计学表现,同时更加简练、易于实施且更易于满足特定的安全需求。BOIN设计在国外已经广泛应用于不同类型的癌症研究,是值得推广的I期临床试验剂量探索的新方法。

Abstract: AIM: To introduce a novel and flexible model-assisted design for Phase I clinical trials: Bayesian optimal interval (BOIN) design, including the process of implementation, practical implementation, and evaluation of its performance. METHODS: BOIN design decides dose escalation/de-escalation by comparing the observed toxicity rate at the current dose with an escalation boundary and a de-escalation boundary that are optimized to minimize the probability of making incorrect decision of dose assignment. The application of the BOIN design is illustrated using a trial example. RESULTS: BOIN combines the advantages of the algorithm-based methods and model-based methods. It enjoys desirable statistical properties -it is optimal, safe, robust and easy to implement. Simulation study shows that the BOIN substantially outperforms the existing designs with higher accuracy to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). CONCLUSION: BOIN design possesses the similar statistical performance to the much more complicated model-based designs. It is simple to implement, and easy to calibrate to meet the safety requirement mandated by regulatory agents. The BOIN design has been widely used in different types of cancers. It is a novel design that holds great potential to substantially improve phase I trials in China.

Key words: Phase I clinical trials, BION, "3+3" design, maximum tolerated dose
