  <dc:title>Regional Consistency Probability for Single-Arm Multi-Regional
Clinical Trials</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package SingleArmMRCT version 0.1.1</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Provides functions to calculate and visualise the Regional
    Consistency Probability (RCP) for single-arm multi-regional clinical
    trials (MRCTs) using the Effect Retention Approach (ERA). Six endpoint
    types are supported: continuous, binary, count (negative binomial),
    time-to-event via hazard ratio, milestone survival, and restricted mean
    survival time (RMST). For each endpoint, both a closed-form (or
    semi-analytical) solution and a Monte Carlo simulation approach are
    implemented. Two consistency evaluation methods are available: Method 1
    (effect retention in Region 1 relative to the overall population) and
    Method 2 (simultaneous positive effect across all regions). Plotting
    functions generate faceted visualisations of RCP as a function of the
    regional allocation proportion, overlaying formula and simulation results
    for direct comparison. The methodology follows the Japanese MHLW
    guidelines for MRCTs.
