The workflow uses three functions from [metalite.ae](https://merck.github.io/metalite.ae/): - `prepare_ae_summary()` prepares the analysis datasets. - `format_ae_summary()` formats the results or creates mock output. - `tlf_ae_summary()` creates the RTF table. An optional extension adds risk-difference inference: - `extend_ae_specific_inference()` adds confidence intervals and p-values based on the Miettinen and Nurminen method. ## Generate an AE summary table The example uses ADSL and ADAE data from the [forestly](https://merck.github.io/forestly/) package. ### Step 1: Define metadata ```{r} # Define metadata adsl <- forestly::forestly_adsl adae <- forestly::forestly_adae adsl$TRT01A <- factor( adsl$TRT01A, levels = c("Xanomeline Low Dose", "Placebo"), labels = c("Low Dose", "Placebo") ) adae$TRTA <- factor( adae$TRTA, levels = c("Xanomeline Low Dose", "Placebo"), labels = c("Low Dose", "Placebo") ) analysis_plan <- metalite::plan( analysis = "ae_summary", population = "apat", observation = "wk12", parameter = "any;rel;ser" ) meta <- metalite::meta_adam(observation = adae, population = adsl) |> metalite::define_plan(analysis_plan) |> metalite::define_population( name = "apat", var = c( "USUBJID", "SAFFL", "TRT01A", "TRTDUR", "SITEID", "SEX", "RACE", "AGE" ), group = "TRT01A", subset = SAFFL == "Y", label = "All Participants as Treated" ) |> metalite::define_observation( name = "wk12", var = c( "USUBJID", "SAFFL", "TRTA", "AEDECOD", "AEBODSYS", "AEREL", "AESER", "AEOUT", "AEACN", "AESDTH", "ASTDT", "AENDT" ), group = "TRTA", subset = SAFFL == "Y", label = "Weeks 0 to 12" ) |> metalite::define_parameter( name = "any", term1 = "", term2 = "", var = "AEDECOD", soc = "AEBODSYS", label = "All AEs" ) |> metalite::define_parameter( name = "rel", term1 = "Drug-Related", term2 = "", subset = AEREL %in% c("POSSIBLE", "PROBABLE"), var = "AEDECOD", soc = "AEBODSYS", label = "Drug-related AEs" ) |> metalite::define_parameter( name = "ser", term1 = "Serious", term2 = "", subset = AESER == "Y", var = "AEDECOD", soc = "AEBODSYS", label = "Serious AEs" ) |> metalite::define_analysis( name = "ae_summary", title = "Adverse Event Summary" ) |> metalite::meta_build() ```

### Step 2: Generate the RTF table `prepare_ae_summary()` uses the definitions in `meta` to calculate the summary results. `format_ae_summary()` formats those results, and `tlf_ae_summary()` creates the RTF table. ```{r, message=FALSE} rtf_dir <- if (dir.exists("vignettes/rtf")) "vignettes/rtf" else "rtf" rtf_file <- file.path(rtf_dir, "ae0summary1.rtf") prepare_ae_summary( meta, population = "apat", observation = "wk12", parameter = "any;rel;ser" ) |> format_ae_summary() |> tlf_ae_summary( source = "Source: [CDISCpilot: adam-adsl; adae]", analysis = "ae_summary", # Provide analysis type defined in meta$analysis path_outtable = rtf_file ) ``` ```{r download-rtf, results="asis", echo=FALSE} cat( "Generated RTF file: ae0summary1.rtf" ) ```
