Flexible Cure Rate Modeling Under Latent Activation Schemes.
With rapid improvements in medical treatment and health care, many datasets dealing with time to relapse or death now reveal a substantial portion of patients who are cured (i.e., who never experience the event). Extended survival models called cure rate models account for the probability of a subject being cured and can be broadly classified into the classical mixture models of Berkson and Gag...
متن کاملThe Poisson-exponential regression model under different latent activation schemes
In this paper, a new family of survival distributions is presented. It is derived by considering that the latent number of failure causes follows a Poisson distribution and the time for these causes to be activated follows an exponential distribution. Three different activation schemes are also considered. Moreover, we propose the inclusion of covariates in the model formulation in order to stu...
متن کاملCure - rate estimation under Case - 1 interval censoring Running title : Cure - rate under interval censoring
We consider nonparametric estimation of cure-rate based on mixture model under Case-1 interval censoring. We show that the nonparametric maximum-likelihood estimator (NPMLE) of cure-rate is non-unique as well as inconsistent , and propose two estimators based on the NPMLE of the distribution function under this censoring model. We present a cross-validation method for choosing a 'cut-off' point...
متن کاملAnalysis of cure rate survival data under proportional odds model.
Due to significant progress in cancer treatments and management in survival studies involving time to relapse (or death), we often need survival models with cured fraction to account for the subjects enjoying prolonged survival. Our article presents a new proportional odds survival models with a cured fraction using a special hierarchical structure of the latent factors activating cure. This ne...
متن کاملCure Rate Model With Mismeasured Covariates Under Transformation
Cure rate models explicitly account for the survival fraction in failure time data. When the covariates are measured with errors, naively treating mismeasured covariates as error-free would cause estimation bias and thus lead to incorrect inference. Under the proportional hazards cure model, we propose a corrected score approach as well as its generalization, and implement a transformation on t...
