Dear  Yi,

 

For the simple model you outline here, NONMEM might not be the most
efficient tool to use. A simple survival model like that can done in R
with one line of code.

 

Kind regards,

 

Filip

Subject: [NMusers] How to do parametric survival modeling

 

Hi,

 

I am not very familiar with NONMEM, but need to use NONMEM to do
parametric survival modeling. Can someone give me a simple example of
how to do the following with loglogistic distribution?

 

log(Y_i)=mu+ theta_1*X_{1i}+theta_2*X_{2i} +sigma*Z_i

 

where Y_i is the survival time for ith subject 

mu is the intercept term

X_{1i} is the age for ith subject

X_{2i} is sex for the ith subject

sigma is the standard deviation for the error term Z_i

Z_i is the random error term with standard logistic distribution

 

If you have something similar or any other suggestions, that would be
greatly appreciated too!

Thanks  a lot!
