Competing risks Kalbfleisch & Prentice method
...to adjust for a vector of covariates. My question is, is there an R package that implements the Kalbfleisch & Prentice method for competing risks with covariates? for example, if k1 is the cause of interest among k competing causes: P_k1(t; x)=P(T<=t, cause=k1|x)=Sum(u=0, ..., u=t) {hazard_k(u;x)*S(u;x)} where S(u;x) = exp{-sum_of_k(sum(hazard_k(u))} I have searched extensively for an implementation of this in many packages, but it appears that more complex approaches are more commonly implemented, such as timereg package.
