Estimating restricted mean survival time and expected life-years lost in the presence of competing risks within flexible parametric survival models
Abstract Background Royston-Parmar flexible parametric survival models (FPMs) can be fitted on either the cause-specific hazards or cumulative incidence scale in the presence of competing risks. An advantage of modelling within this framework for competing risks data is the ease at which alternative...
