3 Two Dependent Binary Outcomes at dose x Two Dependent Binary Outcomes at dose x Consider two dependent binary outcomes,* U for efficacy and V for toxicity. Outcome probabilities given the dose level x are defined as follow. p uv = Pr(U = u, V = v X = x), u, v = 0, 1 Toxicity 1 0 Efficacy 1 p 11 p 10 p 1. 0 p 01 p 00 p 0. p.1 p.0 1 *Motivated by Dragalin, Fedorov and Wu (2006).

4 Probabilities Outcome Probabilities as function of dose Outcome probabilities are p 11 = y 0 p 10 = y 0 z z p 01 = z y p 00 = y z 0 f (y, z)dzdy f (y, z)dzdy 0 f (y, z)dzdy f (y, z)dydz where f (y, z) is the bivariate Weibull density.

13 Bivariate Exponential Distribution Start with Independent Exponential Distribution, Freund (1961) Let T 1 and T 2 have distributions f (t 1 ) = β 1 exp( β 1 t 1 ) for t 1 > 0 f (t 2 ) = β 2 exp( β 2 t 2 ) for t 2 > 0. Then the probability that T 1 fails (occurs) at t 1 and T 2 has not yet failed is t P(T 1 < t, T 2 > t 1 ) t=t1 = β 1 e β 1t 1 e β 2t 1 = β 1 e (β 1+β 2 )t 1.

14 Bivariate Exponential Distribution Freund (1961) uses Conditional Method Introduce to Dependency. 1 The probability that T 1 fails (occurs) at t 1 and T 2 has not yet failed is t P(T 1 < t, T 2 > t 1 ) t=t1 = β 1 e β 1t 1 e β 2t 1 = β 1 e (β 1+β 2 )t 1.

15 Bivariate Exponential Distribution Freund (1961) uses Conditional Method Introduce to Dependency. 1 The probability that T 1 fails (occurs) at t 1 and T 2 has not yet failed is t P(T 1 < t, T 2 > t 1 ) t=t1 = β 1 e β 1t 1 e β 2t 1 = β 1 e (β 1+β 2 )t 1. 2 Specify, furthermore, that the probability density of T 2 given that T 1 fails first at t 1 is t P(T 2 < t T 2 > t 1 ) t=t2 >t 1 = β 2e β 2 (t 2 t 1 ) for 0 < t 1 < t 2.

16 Bivariate Exponential Distribution Freund (1961) uses Conditional Method Introduce to Dependency. 1 The probability that T 1 fails (occurs) at t 1 and T 2 has not yet failed is t P(T 1 < t, T 2 > t 1 ) t=t1 = β 1 e β 1t 1 e β 2t 1 = β 1 e (β 1+β 2 )t 1. 2 Specify, furthermore, that the probability density of T 2 given that T 1 fails first at t 1 is t P(T 2 < t T 2 > t 1 ) t=t2 >t 1 = β 2e β 2 (t 2 t 1 ) for 0 < t 1 < t 2. 3 f (T 1 = t 1, T 2 = t 2 ) = β 1 e (β1+β2)t1 β 2e β 2 (t2 t1) for 0 < t 1 < t 2 <

17 Bivariate Exponential Distribution Freund (1961) Analogously 1 The probability that T 2 fails at t 2 and T 1 has not yet failed is t P(T 2 < t, T 1 > t 2 ) t=t2 = β 2 e β 2t 2 e β 1t 2 = β 2 e (β 1+β 2 )t 2.

18 Bivariate Exponential Distribution Freund (1961) Analogously 1 The probability that T 2 fails at t 2 and T 1 has not yet failed is t P(T 2 < t, T 1 > t 2 ) t=t2 = β 2 e β 2t 2 e β 1t 2 = β 2 e (β 1+β 2 )t 2. 2 The probability density of T 1 given that T 2 fails first at t 2 is t P(T 1 < t T 1 > t 2 ) t=t1 >t 2 = β 1e β 1 (t 1 t 2 ) for 0 < t 2 < t 1.

19 Bivariate Exponential Distribution Freund (1961) Analogously 1 The probability that T 2 fails at t 2 and T 1 has not yet failed is t P(T 2 < t, T 1 > t 2 ) t=t2 = β 2 e β 2t 2 e β 1t 2 = β 2 e (β 1+β 2 )t 2. 2 The probability density of T 1 given that T 2 fails first at t 2 is t P(T 1 < t T 1 > t 2 ) t=t1 >t 2 = β 1e β 1 (t 1 t 2 ) for 0 < t 2 < t 1. 3 f (T 1 = t 1, T 2 = t 2 ) = β 2 e (β1+β2)t2 β 1e β 1 (t1 t2) for 0 < t 2 < t 1 <

20 Bivariate Exponential Distribution Freund (1961) In Summary Bivariate Exponential Distribution f (t 1, t 2 ) = { β 1 e (β1+β2)t1 β 2 e β 2 (t2 t1) β 2 e (β1+β2)t2 β 1 e β 1 (t1 t2) for 0 < t 1 < t 2 < for 0 < t 2 < t 1 < = { β 1 (β 2 )e (β 2 )t2 (β1+β2 β 2 )t1 β 2 (β 1 )e (β 1 )t1 (β1+β2 β 1 )t2 for 0 < t 1 < t 2 < for 0 < t 2 < t 1 <

21 Bivariate Exponential Distribution Marshall-Olkin (1967) Introduced Dependency between Exponential Random Variables using Copula Methods F M (t 1, t 2 ) = P[T 1 > t 1, T 2 > t 2 ] = exp[ β 1 t 1 β 2 t 2 β 3 Max(t 1, t 2 )], β 1, β 2, β 3 > 0. Proschan-Sullo (1974) repeat steps taken by Freund, starting with marginal distribution T 1 and T 2 obtained from Marshall-Olkin to get bivariate exponential distribution with three parameters.

22 Bivariate Exponential Distribution Proschan-Sullo (1974) Bivariate Exponential Distribution Proschan-Sullo proposed BVE which is the combination of both Freund (1961) and Marshall-Olkin (1967). β 1 (β 2 + β 3)e (β 2 +β3)t2 (β1+β2 β 2 )t1 for 0 < t 1 < t 2 < f (t 1, t 2 ) = β 2 (β 1 + β 3)e (β 1 +β3)t1 (β1+β2 β 1 )t2 for 0 < t 2 < t 1 < β 3 e (β1+β2+β3)t1 for 0 < t 1 = t 2 <

23 Bivariate Exponential Distribution Recall: Transformation from Exponential to Weibull Using the transformation Y = T 1 σ 1 and Z = T 1 σ 2 If T 1 is distributed β 1 e β 1t 1, then Y is distributed β 1 σy σ 1 e β 1y σ. If T 2 is distributed β 2 e β 2t 2, then Z is distributed β 2 σz σ 1 e β 2z σ.

24 Bivariate Weibull Distribution Bivariate Weibulll Distribution Bivariate Weibulll Distribution David D. Hanagal (2005) proposed a bivariate Weibull model by means of the transformations T 1 = Y σ and T 2 = Z σ, σ > 0 from the bivariate exponential distribution proposed by Proschan and Sullo.
