In flexrsurv: Flexible Relative Survival Analysis

Package for flexible relative survival analyses

Description

flexrsurv is a package for parametric relative survival analyses. The package implements non-linear, non-proportional effects and both non proportional and non linear effects, using splines (B-spline and truncated power basis), Weighted Cumulative Index of Exposure effect, with correction model for the life table. Both non proportional and non linear effects are described in Remontet et al. (2007) \Sexpr[results=rd]{tools:::Rd_expr_doi("10.1002/sim.2656")} and Mahboubi et al. (2011) \Sexpr[results=rd]{tools:::Rd_expr_doi("10.1002/sim.4208")}.
