Find the cutoff values of biomarkers based on the average subpopulation treatment effect

Description

Find the cutoff values of biomarkers based on the average subpopulation treatment effect

Usage

findATE2(z2interval, kkk, muminusmu0, kappa, rhovec, sigma, cDel)

Arguments

z2interval

a numeric vector of two values, including the lower and upper limits of the initial interval for z2

kkk

the researchers' weighting preference between the two biomarkers

muminusmu0

a number of the difference between the mean of outcome and the minimal clinically important treatment effect

kappa

a number of the correlation coefficient between two biomarkers

rhovec

a numeric vector of two correlation coefficients between the output and two biomarkers

sigma

a number of the standard deviation of outcome

cDel

the desired average subpopulation treatment effect

Value

a numeric vector of two values which are the cutoff values for z1 and z2
