A new cure rate regression framework for bivariate data based on the Chen distribution

RP de Oliveira, MV de Oliveira Peres… - … Methods in Medical …, 2022 - journals.sagepub.com
The present study introduces a new multivariate mixture cure rate model based on the Chen
probability distribution to model recurrent event data in the presence of cure fraction. In this …

Flexible estimation in cure survival models using Bayesian P-splines

V Bremhorst, P Lambert - Computational Statistics & Data Analysis, 2016 - Elsevier
In the analysis of survival data, it is usually assumed that any unit will experience the event
of interest if it is observed for a sufficiently long time. However, it can be explicitly assumed …

[HTML][HTML] Estimating and modelling cure in population-based cancer studies within the framework of flexible parametric survival models

TML Andersson, PW Dickman, S Eloranta… - BMC medical research …, 2011 - Springer
Background When the mortality among a cancer patient group returns to the same level as
in the general population, that is, the patients no longer experience excess mortality, the …

[HTML][HTML] Bayesian and Frequentist Approaches for a Tractable Parametric General Class of Hazard-Based Regression Models: An Application to Oncology Data

AH Muse, S Mwalili, O Ngesa, C Chesneau… - Mathematics, 2022 - mdpi.com
In this study, we consider a general, flexible, parametric hazard-based regression model for
censored lifetime data with covariates and term it the “general hazard (GH)” regression …

Fast Bayesian inference using Laplace approximations in a flexible promotion time cure model based on P-splines

O Gressani, P Lambert - Computational Statistics & Data Analysis, 2018 - Elsevier
Bayesian methods for flexible time-to-event models usually rely on the theory of Markov
chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) to sample from posterior distributions and perform statistical …

Maximum likelihood methods for cure rate models with missing covariates

MH Chen, JG Ibrahim - Biometrics, 2001 - Wiley Online Library
We propose maximum likelihood methods for parameter estimation for a novel class of semi‐
parametric survival models with a cure fraction, in which the covariates are allowed to be …

Bayesian nonparametric nonproportional hazards survival modeling

M De Iorio, WO Johnson, P Müller, GL Rosner - Biometrics, 2009 - academic.oup.com
We develop a dependent Dirichlet process model for survival analysis data. A major feature
of the proposed approach is that there is no necessity for resulting survival curve estimates …

A semi‐parametric accelerated failure time cure model

CS Li, JMG Taylor - Statistics in medicine, 2002 - Wiley Online Library
A cure model is a useful approach for analysing failure time data in which some subjects
could eventually experience, and others never experience, the event of interest. A cure …

Vertical modeling: analysis of competing risks data with a cure fraction

MA Nicolaie, JMG Taylor, C Legrand - Lifetime data analysis, 2019 - Springer
In this paper, we extend the vertical modeling approach for the analysis of survival data with
competing risks to incorporate a cure fraction in the population, that is, a proportion of the …

A new survival model with surviving fraction: An application to colorectal cancer data

GDC Barriga, VG Cancho, DV Garibay… - … methods in medical …, 2019 - journals.sagepub.com
We propose a new survival model for lifetime data in the presence of surviving fraction and
obtain some of its properties. Its genesis is based on extensions of the promotion time cure …
