mgus

All 241 patients diagnosed with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined
 significance at the Mayo Clinic before Jan. 1, 1971, and followed
 forward until 1992. The interest lies in the possible transformation
 of mgus towards a cancer of the plasma cells, death from other causes
 acting as a competing risk.

survival

Permits to estimate the conditional probability function of a competing event, and to fit, using the temporal process regression or the pseudo-value approach, a proportional-odds model to the conditional probability function (or other models by specifying another link function).
