Implementation of TITE-PK
=========================
This is the accompanying code to paper "A Bayesian time-to-event pharmacokinetic model for phase I
dose-escalation trials with multiple schedules"
by BK Günhan, S Weber, and T Friede.
We consider an artificial phase I trial with multiple schedules to illustrate our proposed model TITE-PK.

TITE-PK
=======
TITE-PK (a time-to-event pharmacokinetic model) is a method for designing and analyzing
phase I dose-escalation trials with multiple schedules, eg a daily and weekly dosing.
Hence, TITE-PK finds an acceptable dose and schedule combination.

Computations
============
TITE-PK uses **Stan** via `Rstan`, hence it should be installed.
See [here](https://github.com/stan-dev/rstan/wiki/RStan-Getting-Started)
for how to install it.

`TITEPK_run.R` is the main R-script which produce the Figure 2 of the main text
for TITE-PK methods.

`tite_pk.stan` is the main **Stan** script
which is used in `TITEPK_run.R` to implement the TITE-PK model.
