Survival extrapolation using the poly-Weibull model
Recent studies of (cost-) effectiveness in cardiothoracic transplantation have required estimation of mean survival over the lifetime of the recipients. In order to calculate mean survival, the complete survivor curve is required but is often not fully observed, so that survival extrapolation is necessary. After transplantation, the hazard function is bathtub-shaped, reflecting latent competing...

Extrapolation of Survival Curves from Cancer Trials Using External Information.
BACKGROUND Estimates of life expectancy are a key input to cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) models for cancer treatments. Due to the limited follow-up in Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs), parametric models are frequently used to extrapolate survival outcomes beyond the RCT period. However, different parametric models that fit the RCT data equally well may generate highly divergent predictio...
متن کاملInference in a survival cure model with mismeasured covariates using a simulation-extrapolation approach
In many situations in survival analysis, it may happen that a fraction of individuals will never experience the event of interest: they are considered to be cured. The promotion time cure model takes this into account. We consider the case where one or more explanatory variables in the model are subject to measurement error, which should be taken into account to avoid biased estimators. A gener...
