Quantile regression for survival data with covariates subject to detection limits by Yu, Tonghui, Xiang, Liming, Wang, Huixia Judy

“…This leads to two types of censoring: random censoring in overall survival outcomes and fixed censoring in biomarker covariates, posing new challenges in statistical modeling and inference. Existing methods for analyzing such data focus primarily on linear regression ignoring censored responses or semiparametric accelerated failure time models with covariates under detection limits (DL). …”
