calgb {DPpackage} | R Documentation |
Data from two studies carried out by the Cancer and Leukemia Group B (CLAGB): CALGB 8881 and CALGB 9160. In both studies, the main response was white blood cell count (WBC) for each patient over time. Mueller and Rosner (1998) used a non-linear patient specific regression model. The data consider the subject-specific regression parameters (Z1, Z2, Z3, T1, T2, B0, B1) and information on covariates.
CALGB has kindly agreed to make these data available for interested readers, subject to the following conditions: i) Any paper using these data should acknowledge CALGB for the use of the data, and ii) the paper should reference the original papers describing the studies.
