Defective regression models for cure rate modeling with interval‐censored data

Abstract: Regression models in survival analysis are most commonly applied for right‐censored survival data. In some situations, the time to the event is not exactly observed, although it is known that the event occurred between two observed times. In practice, the moment of observation is frequently taken as the event occurrence time, and the interval‐censored mechanism is ignored. We present a cure rate defective model for interval‐censored event‐time data. The defective distribution is characterized by a density func… Show more

“…Many authors have performed simulations to assess the asymptotic behavior of MLEs, especially when the analytical investigation is not trivial. 35,38,39 We also conducted a simulation study in order to assess the impact of unobservable heterogeneity on the cured fraction, as well as we evaluate the performance of the models in estimating correctly the parameter α (negative) when in fact there is a long-term survivors group. In addition, we investigate the performance of the GTDL frailty model in terms of the same discrimination criteria when compared to the standard GTDL model, that is, without the frailty term.…”

“…37 and Calsavara et al. 38,39 recently popularized the term “defective,” although the same idea had appeared in previous papers. Instead of estimating the cure fraction p directly, as in a standard mixture model, the defective model provides an alternative for the modeling of lifetime data with long-term survivors, once it has been made a cure rate model by changing the usual domains of its parameters.…”

“…Along the same line, Calsavara et al 21 proposed a nonproportional hazards model with a frailty term that allows the existence or nonexistence of long-term survivors in a population. Defective models, recently popularized by Rocha et al, [22][23][24] Scudilio et al, 25 and Calsavara et al, 26,27 can also be used to model presence or absence of long-term survivors. Cucchetti et al 28 applied a cure rate model to the analysis of data from patients with colorectal liver metastases.…”
