Analysis of data from a given time origin until occurence of a specific point in time
Two main difficulties: Observed survival time are often incomplete
Specifying the true survival time
![Page 4: Pro gradu –thesis Tuija Hevonkorpi. Basic of survival analysis Weibull model Frailty models Accelerated failure time model Case study](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051316/56649f175503460f94c2eb2c/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Occurs when the favoured endpoint is not observed
Complicates the exact distribution theory and the estimation of quantiles
Special statistical models and methods for analysing data arises
![Page 5: Pro gradu –thesis Tuija Hevonkorpi. Basic of survival analysis Weibull model Frailty models Accelerated failure time model Case study](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051316/56649f175503460f94c2eb2c/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Moment in time when the patient was recruited until endpoint occurs
Only calculated for those who encounter the endpoint
Survivor function summarises the distribution of the survival times
Censoring time and survival time are statistically independent random variables

Describes patient´s probability to survive from the time origin t0 over a specific time t.
The probability that survival time is less than t is described with the distribution function of T, F(t).

Often survival times are not independent
More than one endpoint occuring for one patient – repeated event times within a patient
The random effect is refered to as frailty
Frailty is unobserved variation between patients - the most frail encounter the endpoint earlier than those not so frail
![Page 13: Pro gradu –thesis Tuija Hevonkorpi. Basic of survival analysis Weibull model Frailty models Accelerated failure time model Case study](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051316/56649f175503460f94c2eb2c/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
An alternative way to model failure time data
Hazard function does not have to follow a specific distribution
Regression parameters are robust towards the neglected covariates
Best described by the survivor function The per cent of patients in the group A
that live longer than t, is equal to the per cent of patients in the group B that live longer than t
The survival time is speeded up or slowed down by the effect of the explanatory variable
![Page 14: Pro gradu –thesis Tuija Hevonkorpi. Basic of survival analysis Weibull model Frailty models Accelerated failure time model Case study](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051316/56649f175503460f94c2eb2c/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Main objective is to evaluate the time to significant pain relief with the active medication group compared to placebo group
Three models: • A proportional hazards model with
Weibull distributed event times and gamma frailty term
• A proportional hazards model with Weibull distributed event times and log-normal frailty term
• An AFT model with log-normal distributed event times and log-normal frailty term
![Page 15: Pro gradu –thesis Tuija Hevonkorpi. Basic of survival analysis Weibull model Frailty models Accelerated failure time model Case study](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051316/56649f175503460f94c2eb2c/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Patients were randomised in 3:1 ratio in the two treatment groups
113 patients experienced two pain episodes, 6 patients only one.

The functions cross because different treatment is given to different patients when the usual re-parametrisation of the survivor function of the AFT model does not occur necessary

All but log-normal frailty and AFT with frailty differ from each other statistically significantly
In all analyses, the hazard ratio, or the accelerator factor in AFT model, was calculated, and the difference between the two models was not statistically significant
