Abstract

Methods of statistical analysis of censored survival times are briefly reviewed and illustrated by application to clinical trials data. These include estimation of the survival curce, nonparametric tests to compare several survival curves, tests for trend, and regression analysis. Extensions of the methodology are made for application to epidemiologic case-control studies. These are used to estimate relative risks for leukemia associated with radiation exposures. A final section provides some annotated references to the recent literature.
