Abstract

A non-linear beta-binomial regression model for mapping qlqc-30 to the eq-5d in lung cancer patients: a comparison with existing approaches

Highlights

  • The performance of the Beta Binomial (BB) model is compared with several existing models for mapping the QLQC-30 on to the EQ-5D using data from lung cancer trials

  • The mean prediction error, R2, proportion predicted outside the valid range, clinical interpretation of coefficients, model fit and estimation of Quality Adjusted Life Years (QALY) are reported and compared

  • Estimates from the BB were more accurate for predicting EQ-5D and QALYs compared to other modelling approaches
