Table 3.

Proportion of trials that selected each dose level as the final MTD out of 1000 trials for a given scenario; R(di) denotes true DLT rates. CRMB is the original Bayesian CRM; CRML2, CRML3, CRML4 and CRML5 use pseudodata and the approach described in Section 4.2 with skeletons s2, s3, s4, s5 respectively.
