A Class of Semiparametric Mixture Cure Survival Models with Dependent Censoring.
Modern cancer treatments have substantially improved cure rates and have generated a great interest in and need for proper statistical tools to analyze survival data with non-negligible cure fractions. Data with cure fractions are often complicated by dependent censoring, and the analysis of this type of data typically involves untestable parametric assumptions on the dependence of the censorin...
متن کاملEstimating a time-dependent concordance index for survival prediction models with covariate dependent censoring.
Given a predictive marker and a time-to-event response variable, the proportion of concordant pairs in a data set is called concordance index. A specifically useful marker is the risk predicted by a survival regression model. This article extends the existing methodology for applications where the length of the follow-up period depends on the predictor variables. A class of inverse probability ...
متن کاملCure Fraction Models Using Mixture and Non-mixture Models
We introduce the Weibull distributions in presence of cure fraction, censored data and covariates. Twomodels are explored in this paper: mixture and non-mixture models. Inferences for the proposed models are obtained under the Bayesian approach, using standard MCMC (Markov Chain Monte Carlo) methods. An illustration of the proposed methodology is given considering a lifetime data set.
متن کاملHeteroskedastic Transformation Models with Covariate Dependent Censoring
In this paper we propose an inferential procedure for transformation models with conditional heteroskedasticity in the error terms. The proposed method is robust to covariate dependent censoring of arbitrary form. We provide sufficient conditions for point identification. We then propose a consistent estimator and show that it is asymptoticaly √ n normal. We conduct a simulation study that reve...
متن کاملInformative Censoring in Piecewise Exponential Survival Models
There are often reasons to suppose that there is dependence between the time to event and time to censoring, or informative censoring, for survival data, particularly when considering medical data. This is because the decision to treat or not is often made according to prognosis, usually with the most ill patients being prioritised. Due to identifiability issues, sensitivity analyses are often ...
