#' Data from a RCT on advanced ovarian cancer
#'
#' Controlled clinical trial on N = 476 women with advanced ovarian
#' cancer. The objective is to compare three treatment regimens:
#' monochemotherapy P (cisplatin), polichemotherapies cyclophosphamide
#' (CP) and cyclophosphamide + adriamycin (CAP).
#'
#' Endpoint is the overall survival. The prognostic factors available
#' are residual tumor size, Karnofsky Index, Histology and the
#' Federation Internationale de Gynecologie et d'Obstetrique
#' classification.
