corTrans

Correlation of PFS and OS event times for Different Transition Models

Based on the illness-death model a large number of clinical
trials with oncology endpoints progression-free survival (PFS) and
overall survival (OS) can be simulated, see Meller, Beyersmann and
Rufibach (2019) <doi:10.1002/sim.8295>. The simulation set-up allows
for random and event-driven censoring, an arbitrary number of
treatment arms, staggered study entry and drop-out. Exponentially,
Weibull and piecewise exponentially distributed survival times can be
generated. The correlation between PFS and OS can be calculated.
