Abstract:We consider survival data from a population with cured subjects in the presence of mismeasured covariates. We use the mixture cure model to account for the individuals that will never experience the event and at the same time distinguish between the effect of the covariates on the cure probabilities and on survival times. In particular, for practical applications, it seems of interest to assume a logistic form of the incidence and a Cox proportional hazards model for the latency. To correct the estimators for … Show more
