摘要

Purpose To compare the performance of anchor-based methods for estimating thresholds of meaningful within-patient change (i.e., individual change) of clinical outcome assessments in conditions reflecting data characteristics of small- to medium-sized clinical trials. Methods Datasets were generated from the joint distributions of the PROMIS PF 20a T-score changes and a seven-point global change anchor measure. The 108 simulation conditions (1000 replications per condition) included combinations of three marginal distributions of T-score changes, three improvement percentages in the anchor measure, four levels of responsiveness correlations, and three sample sizes. Threshold estimation methods included mean change, median change, ROC curve, predictive modeling, half SD, and SEM. Relative bias, precision, accuracy, and measurement significance of the estimates were evaluated based on comparison with true thresholds and IRT-based individual reliable changes of PROMIS scores. Quantile regression models were applied to select and interpret effects of simulation conditions on estimation bias. Results When PROMIS T-score changes were distributed normally, the predictive modeling method performed best with 50 or more responders identified by the anchor; the mean and median methods were preferred with 30 responders. For skewed distributions, the median method and ROC method gained more advantages. Among the evaluated study conditions, the improvement percentage condition had the most obvious effects on estimation bias. Conclusion To establish accurate and precise thresholds, clinical researchers are recommended to prioritize study designs with at least 50 anchor-defined responders and strongly responsive target endpoints with highly reliable scoring calibration and to select optimal anchor-based methods given the data characteristics.
