Dear R users, I d like to assess the effect of "treatment" covariate on a disease relapse risk with the package cmprsk. However, the effect of this covariate on survival is time-dependent (assessed with cox.zph): no significant effect during the first year of follow-up, then after 1 year a favorable effect is observed on survival (step function might be the correct way to say that ?).

This message was also sent to the MEDSTATS mailing list, so here is the reply I posted to that: Philippe, The machinery to use is to split follow-up time so finely that you can safely assume that rates are constant in each interval, and then just stuff it all into a Poisson model. This allows you to use any kind of time-dependent variables as well as accommodating competing risks. In the Epi

Dear R users, is there a way, I mean a package, to perform a competing risk model which can handle time dependent covariates ? my main covariate (additional treatment to patients) appears not to follow the proportional hazards assumption, its effect being observed after one year of treatment but not before (this is expected / makes sense on a clinical point of view). SO I was planning to use a

Dear R users I would like to calculate the Cumulative incidence for an event adjusting for competing risks and adjusting for covariates. One way to do this in R is to use the cmprsk package, function crr. This uses the Fine & Gray regression model. However, a simpler and more classical approach would be to implement the Kalbfleisch & Prentice method (1980, p 169), where one fits cause

Hi all I do not understand why I am getting the following error message. Can anybody help me with this? Thanks in advance. install.packages("cmprsk") library(cmprsk) result1 <-crr(ftime, fstatus, cov1, failcode=1, cencode=0 ) one.pout1 = predict(result1,cov1,X=cbind(1,one.z1,one.z2)) predict.crr(result1,cov1,X=cbind(1,one.z1,one.z2)) Error: could not find function

Hi, I need to fit model using crr, however my covariate is categorical with 3 levels. I use crr(time,status,agesplit,failcode=1,cencode=0) where agesplit is defined as <20,21-29,>30 years, so it takes 0, 1 or 2 for each patient. I hoped to get estimated coefficients for the levels 1 and 2 w.r.t level 0 as in coxph. But, I didn't. Could someone please help me to use crr in this

'make check-all' for current R has been showing this error in the middle for a few months now - any thought on fixing this? I think cmprsk should be either included in the recommended bundle, or the survival vignette to not depend on it. Having 'make check-all' showing glaring ERROR's for a few months seems to defeat the purpose of doing any checking at all via 'make

Dear R-users Has anybody implemented a function/package that will compute an individual's risk of an event in the presence of competing risks, adjusted for the individual's covariates? The only thing that seems to come close is the cuminc function from cmprsk package, but I would like to adjust for more than one covariate (it allows you to stratify by a single grouping vector). Any

Dear R-help list members, I am trying to create my own axes when plotting a cumulative incidence curve using the plot.cuminc function in the CMPRSK library. The default x-axis places tick marks and labels at 0, 20, 40, 60, and 80 (my data has an upper limit of 96), whereas I want them at my own specified locations. Here is my example code: library(cmprsk) attach(MYDATA) MYCUMINC <-

Dear All, I have analysed time to event data for continuous variables by considering the multivariable fractional polynomial (MFP) model and comparing this to the untransformed and log transformed model to determine which transformation, if any, is best. This was possible as the Cox model was the underlying model. However, I am now at the situation where the assumption that the competing risks

I am trying to use the crr function in the cmprsk package to analyze a large patient dataset (45000 +), The model has 100 + covariates and 5 competing risks. I am finding that R seems to get bogged down and even if I let it run for several hours I don't get anything back. Am I expecting too much, or are there ways to speed up the process? Any help is appreciated. Best, Spencer

hello,everyone: I am now confused in multistate survival , when I want to poccess a multistate survival analysis, I turn to R and the package 'mstate' and packege 'cmprsk'. When I come to publishing the article. Follow requirement of the magzine, the statistic is carry out in LTA package (which was said to be a authority in intauterine from WHO) . There we found difference

Hi, To use cuminc() from cmprsk package, if a subject has 2 events (both the event of interest and the event of competing risk), should I create 2 observations for this subject in the dataset, one for each event with different fstatus (1 and 2), or just 1 observation with whatever event that happened first? My analysis objective is calculate cumulative incidence for the event of interest.

Dear R-community, I would like to plot the numbers at risk for the different causes of failure at specific timepoints below a cumulative incidence function plot (plot.cuminc-function, cmprsk-package). For a Kaplan-Meier plot I know this is possible with the n.risk-argument in the survplot-function (rms-package), but to my knowledge no such readily-available functions are available for competing

Hi All, I'm trying to figure out the cumulative incidence curve in R in some limited time. I found in package "cmprsk", the command "plot.cuminc" can get this curve. But I noticed that there is no mark for the censored time there, comparing with the KM curve by "plot.survfit". Here are my codes (attached is the data): ----------------

Dear Prof Gray and everyone, As our package developers discussed about incompatibility between Design and survival packages, I faced another problem with cmprsk- a survival dependent packacge. The problem is exactly similar to what happened to the Design package that when I just started running cuminc function, R was suddenly closed. These incidents suggest that maybe many other survival

Hi Rs, I am analyzing a time to event dataset with several competing risks. 0 = Active by end of study 1 = Stopped treatment to start another treatment 2 = Lost 3 = Dead My event of interest in Lost to Followup but starting a different treatment and dying are competing risks. All 1,2,3 events are events of exiting the study, but it's only 2-LTFU that we are concerned with (I know I am
