# historicalborrow

Historical borrowing in clinical trials can improve
precision and operating characteristics. This package supports
a hierarchical model and a mixture model to borrow historical
control data from other studies to better characterize the
response of the control arm of the current study. It also quantifies
the amount of borrowing through benchmark models (independent
and pooled). Some of the methods are discussed by Viele et al. (2013).
