Description:
Provides a standardized framework to support the selection and evaluation of parametric survival models for time-to-event data. Includes tools for visualizing survival data, checking proportional hazards assumptions (Grambsch and Therneau, 1994, <doi:10.1093/biomet/81.3.515>), comparing parametric (Ishak and colleagues, 2013, <doi:10.1007/s40273-013-0064-3>), spline (Royston and Parmar, 2002, <doi:10.1002/sim.1203>) and cure models, examining hazard functions, and evaluating model extrapolation. Methods are consistent with recommendations in the NICE Decision Support Unit Technical Support Documents (14 and 21 <https://sheffield.ac.uk/nice-dsu/tsds/survival-analysis>). Results are structured to facilitate integration into decision-analytic models, and reports can be generated with 'rmarkdown'. The package builds on existing tools including 'flexsurv' (Jackson, 2016, <doi:10.18637/jss.v070.i08>)) and 'flexsurvcure' for estimating cure models.
