The Destructive Cure Rate Regression in Cancer Prognosis and Prediction

A new flexible cure rate survival regression is proposed for predicting cancer prognosis, which provides a more realistic interpretation of the biological mechanism of the event of interest. The new regression predicts breast carcinoma survival in postmastectomy women but it can be applied to differ...

Sumario:A new flexible cure rate survival regression is proposed for predicting cancer prognosis, which provides a more realistic interpretation of the biological mechanism of the event of interest. The new regression predicts breast carcinoma survival in postmastectomy women but it can be applied to different types of surgery offered to treat cancer.
