Multiple comparisons in carcinogenesis study with right-censored survival data.
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper considers the practical problem in animal carcinogenesis experiments where several treatment groups are compared with a control group in a one-way layout and the observed survival data are subject to random right-censorship. Proposed herein are multiple testing procedures based on two-sample weighted logrank statistics, each comparing an individual treatment with the control, for determining which treatments are more effective than the control. The associated p-value of claiming a certain treatment is more effective than the control is also discussed. A test-based confidence set for the scale changes between each treatment and the control is then obtained. The comparative results of a Monte Carlo error rate and power study for small sample sizes are presented. Finally, a numerical example involving renal carcinoma in mice demonstrates the feasibility of the proposed multiple testing procedures and test-based confidence set.

Strong Convergence Rates of the Product-limit Estimator for Left Truncated and Right Censored Data under Association
Non-parametric estimation of a survival function from left truncated data subject to right censoring has been extensively studied in the literature. It is commonly assumed in such studies that the lifetime variables are a sample of independent and identically distributed random variables from the target population. This assumption is often prone to failure in practical studies. For instance, wh...
متن کاملSpatial Modeling of Censored Survival Data
An important issue in survival data analysis is the identification of risk factors. Some of these factors are identifiable and explainable by presence of some covariates in the Cox proportional hazard model, while the others are unidentifiable or even immeasurable. Spatial correlation of censored survival data is one of these sources that are rarely considered in the literatures. In this paper,...
متن کاملNonparametric Predictive Multiple Comparisons with Censored Data and Competing Risks
This paper provides an overview of nonparametric predictive inference for comparison of multiple groups of data including right-censored observations. Different right-censoring schemes discussed are early termination of an experiment, progressive censoring and competing risks. Theoretical results are briefly stated, detailed justifications are presented elsewhere. The methods are illustrated an...
متن کاملComparison of three Estimation Procedures for Weibull Distribution based on Progressive Type II Right Censored Data
In this paper, based on the progressive type II right censored data, we consider estimates of MLE and AMLE of scale and shape parameters of weibull distribution. Also a new type of parameter estimation, named inverse estimation, is introdued for both shape and scale parameters of weibull distribution which is used from order statistics properties in it. We use simulations and study the biases a...
متن کاملMultiple Imputations Based Estimation of Survival Functions
We derive the asymptotic distribution of the multiple imputations based Kaplan– Meier estimator from right censored data with missing censoring indicators and perform a theoretical and numerical comparison with a competing semiparametric survival function estimator, including a robustness study.
