Joint Longitudinal and Survival-cure Models with Constrained Parameters in Tumour Xenograft Experiments

Bayesian Sample Size Determination for Joint Modeling of Longitudinal Measurements and Survival Data

A longitudinal study refers to collection of a response variable and possibly some explanatory variables at multiple follow-up times. In many clinical studies with longitudinal measurements, the response variable, for each patient is collected as long as an event of interest, which considered as clinical end point, occurs. Joint modeling of continuous longitudinal measurements and survival time...

کاربرد مدل توأم بقا و داده های طولی در بیماران دیالیز صفاقی

Background and Aim: In many medical studies along with longitudinal data, which are repeatedly measured during a certain time period, survival data are also recorded. In these situations, using models such as, mixed effects models or GEE method for longitudinal data and Cox model for survival data, are not appropriate because some necessary assumptions are not met. Instead, the joint models hav...

Joint Longitudinal-survival-cure Models and Their Application to Prostate Cancer

Many scientific investigations generate both longitudinal data and survival data. Methods for the combined analysis of both kinds of data have been developed in recent years, with the main emphasis being on modeling and estimation. In cancer research it is common for there to be long term survivors or cured patients and methods have been developed to analyze such data. In this article, we revie...

Joint Modeling of Longitudinal and Cure-survival Data.

This article presents semiparametric joint models to analyze longitudinal measurements and survival data with a cure fraction. We consider a broad class of transformations for the cure-survival model, which includes the popular proportional hazards structure and the proportional odds structure as special cases. We propose to estimate all the parameters using the nonparametric maximum likelihood...
