OBJECTIVES: Multilevel network meta-regression (ML-NMR) leverages individual patient data (IPD) and aggregate data from a network of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to assess the comparative efficacy of multiple treatments, while adjusting for between-study differences. We provide an overview of ML-NMR for time-to-event outcomes and apply it to an illustrative case study, including example R code.
METHODS: The case study evaluated the comparative efficacy of idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel), selinexor+dexamethasone (Sd), belantamab mafodotin (BM), and conventional care (CC) for patients with triple-class exposed relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma in terms of overall survival. Single-arm clinical trials and real-world data were naively combined to create an aggregate data artificial RCT (aRCT) (MAMMOTH-CC versus DREAMM-2-BM versus STORM-2-Sd) and an IPD aRCT (KarMMa-ide-cel versus KarMMa-RW-CC). With some assumptions, we incorporated continuous covariates with skewed distributions, reported as median and range. The ML-NMR models adjusted for number of prior lines, triple-class refractory status, and age and were compared using the leave-one-out information criterion. We summarized predicted hazard ratios and survival (95% credible intervals) in the IPD aRCT population.
RESULTS: The Weibull ML-NMR model had the lowest leave-one-out information criterion. Ide-cel was more efficacious than Sd, BM, and CC in terms of overall survival. Effect modifiers had minimal impact on the model, and only triple-class refractory was a prognostic factor.
CONCLUSIONS: We demonstrate an application of ML-NMR for time-to-event outcomes and introduce code that can be used to aid implementation. Given its benefits, we encourage practitioners to utilize ML-NMR when population adjustment is necessary for comparisons of multiple treatments.
