Abstract
The model of Dewanji and Kalbfleisch for the estimation of time to tum our onset from a serial-sacrifice experiment is extended to include a marker state prior to the onset of the tumour. There are two versions of the model, one where a tumour is allowed to develop without the ons et of marker, the other where a tumour develops after the marker but i n which the marker later becomes unobservable.
