Bayesian predictive probability design, with a binary endpoint, is gaining attention for the phase II trial due to its innovative strategy. To make the Bayesian design more accessible, we elucidate this Bayesian approach with a R package to streamline a statistical plan, so biostatisticians and clinicians can easily integrate the design into clinical trial.
