Resumen de Estimating and evaluating personalized treatment recommendations from randomized trials with ptr

Matthias Pierce, Richard Emsley

• One of the targets of personalized medicine is to provide treatment rec- ommendations using patient characteristics. We present the command ptr, which both predicts a personalized treatment recommendation algorithm and evaluates its effectiveness versus an alternative regime, using randomized trial data. The command allows for multiple (continuous or categorical) biomarkers and a binary or continuous outcome. Confidence intervals for the evaluation parameter are provided using bootstrap resampling
