Abstract
This paper proposes a trial design for locating group-specific doses when groups are partially or completely ordered by dose sensitivity. Previous trial designs for partially ordered groups are model-based, whereas the proposed method is model-assisted, providing clinicians with a design that is simpler. The proposed method performs similarly to model-based methods, providing simplicity without losing accuracy. Additionally, to the best of our knowledge, the proposed method is the first paper on dose-finding for partially ordered groups with convergence results. To generalize the proposed method, a framework is introduced that allows partial orders to be transferred to a grid format with a known ordering across rows but an unknown ordering within rows.
