BayesPPDSurv: Bayesian Power Prior Design for Survival Outcomes

Bayesian power/type I error calculation and model fitting using the power prior and the normalized power prior for time-to-event endpoints. The proportional hazards model with piecewise constant hazard (piecewise exponential) is implemented. The methodology and examples of applying the package are detailed in <doi:10.32614/RJ-2026-009>. The Bayesian clinical trial design methodology is described in Chen et al. (2011) <doi:10.1111/j.1541-0420.2011.01561.x>, and Psioda and Ibrahim (2019) <doi:10.1093/biostatistics/kxy009>. The proportional hazards model with piecewise constant hazard is detailed in Ibrahim et al. (2001) <doi:10.1007/978-1-4757-3447-8>.
