Predicting bank failures : a comparison of the Cox proportional hazards model and time-varying covariates model. by Cheng, Philip Yim Kwong.

“…As a contribution to bank regulation by improving the accuracy of predicting failed banks, I first illustrate the use of martingale and other residuals as diagnostic checks for Cox’s proportional hazards model. Second, I discuss and substantiate the claim that a time-varying covariates model is superior to the Cox model as a bank failure model.…”

Somatic gene mutation patterns and burden influence outcomes with enasidenib in relapsed/refractory IDH2-mutated AML by Risueño, A, See, WL, Bluemmert, I, de Botton, S, DiNardo, CD, Fathi, AT, Schuh, AC, Montesinos, P, Vyas, P, Prebet, T, Gandhi, A, Hasan, M

“…We recently reported results from the phase 3 IDHENTIFY trial (NCT02577406) showing improved response rates and event-free survival with enasidenib monotherapy compared with conventional care regimens (CCR) in heavily pretreated, older patients with late-stage R/R AML bearing IDH2 mutations. Here we investigated the prognostic impact of mutational burden and different co-mutation patterns at study entry within the predominant IDH2 variant subclasses, IDH2-R140 and IDH2-R172. …”
