There are many design options for toxicity-driven phase 1 dose-finding in oncology drug development. Ultimately, if the target DLT-rate is 25%, the most commonly selected target, do the physicians need to have an acceptable interval of 0.16 to 0.33 or would it be just as reasonable to set the range as 0% to 33% DLT rate for the permissible doses? For the BLRM or related methods, this includes the DLT definition, the DLT-target, and the DLT-target acceptable range which are all very related. There are methods that are simple, traditional and transparent, such as the 3 + 31 or rolling 6 design2 that do not target a dose limiting toxicity (DLT)-rate and are focused on exploring escalating doses subject to limits on patient risk.
