Abstract:Typical univariate measures of variation in chemotherapy protocols fail to capture and describe the full multi-dimensional complexity of treatment adjustments in real-world data. In this preliminary work, we propose novel visualisations of observed treatment events, as well as treatment-as-delivered relative to initial prescriptions, as a means of gaining insights into complex patterns of treatment variation in cancer patients. Simple clustering techniques were also used to confirm the utility of these visuali… Show more
