Measuring Treatment Effects Using Semiparametric Models, Zhuo Yu, Mark J. Van Der Laan
Measuring Treatment Effects Using Semiparametric Models, Zhuo Yu, Mark J. Van Der Laan
U.C. Berkeley Division of Biostatistics Working Paper Series
In order to estimate the causal effect of treatments on an outcome of interest, one has to account for the effect of confounding factors which covary with the treatments and also contribute to the outcome of interest. In this paper, we use the semiparametric regression model to estimate the causal parameters. We assume the causal effect of the treatments can be described by the parametric component of the semiparametric regression model. Following the general methodology which was developed in van der Laan and Robins (2002) we give the orthogonal complement of the nuisance tangent space which identifies all the estimating …

Noncompliance is a common problem in experiments involving randomized assignment of treatments, and standard analyses based on intention-to treat or treatment received have limitations. An attractive alternative is to estimate the Complier-Average Causal Effect (CACE), which is the average treatment effect for the subpopulation of subjects who would comply under either treatment (Angrist, Imbens and Rubin, 1996, henceforth AIR). We propose an Extended General Location Model to estimate the CACE from data with non-compliance and missing data in the outcome and in baseline covariates. Models for both continuous and categorical outcomes and ignorable and latent ignorable (Frangakis and Rubin, 1999) …
Mixtures Of Varying Coefficient Models For Longitudinal Data With Discrete Or Continuous Non-Ignorable Dropout, Joseph W. Hogan, Xihong Lin, Benjamin A. Herman

The analysis of longitudinal repeated measures data is frequently complicated by missing data due to informative dropout. We describe a mixture model for joint distribution for longitudinal repeated measures, where the dropout distribution may be continuous and the dependence between response and dropout is semiparametric. Specifically, we assume that responses follow a varying coefficient random effects model conditional on dropout time, where the regression coefficients depend on dropout time through unspecified nonparametric functions that are estimated using step functions when dropout time is discrete (e.g., for panel data) and using smoothing splines when dropout time is continuous. Inference under the …
Estimating Causal Parameters In Marginal Structural Models With Unmeasured Confounders Using Instrumental Variables, Tanya A. Henneman, Mark Johannes Van Der Laan, Alan E. Hubbard

For statisticians analyzing medical data, a significant problem in determining the causal effect of a treatment on a particular outcome of interest, is how to control for unmeasured confounders. Techniques using instrumental variables (IV) have been developed to estimate causal parameters in the presence of unmeasured confounders. In this paper we apply IV methods to both linear and non-linear marginal structural models. We study a specific class of generalized estimating equations that is appropriate to these data, and compare the performance of the resulting estimator to the standard IV method, a two-stage least squares procedure. Our results are applied to …
Mixture Hazards Models With Additive Random Effects Accounting For Treatment Effectiveness Lag Time, Ying Qing Chen, C. A. Rohde, M.-C. Wang
Mixture Hazards Models With Additive Random Effects Accounting For Treatment Effectiveness Lag Time, Ying Qing Chen, C. A. Rohde, M.-C. Wang
U.C. Berkeley Division of Biostatistics Working Paper Series
In many clinical trials to evaluate treatment efficacy, it is believed that there may exist latent treatment effectiveness lag times after which medical treatment procedure or chemical compound would be in full effect. In this article, semiparametric regression models are proposed and studied for estimating the treatment effect accounting for such latent lag times. The new models take advantage of the invariance property of the additive hazards model in marginalising over an additive latent variable; parameters in the models are thus easily estimated and interpreted, while the flexibility of not having to specify the baseline hazard function is preserved. Monte …
A Class Of Semiparametric Scale-Change Hazards Regression Models And Its Adequacy For Censored Survival Data, Ying Qing Chen
A Class Of Semiparametric Scale-Change Hazards Regression Models And Its Adequacy For Censored Survival Data, Ying Qing Chen
U.C. Berkeley Division of Biostatistics Working Paper Series
A class of semiparametric hazards regression models called the accelerated hazards models was introduced to identify the covariate effect characterized by the scale-change between hazard functions. In this article, we compare the accelerated hazards models with several other popular classes of regression models in statistical literature for censored survival data. We also propose and study some test statistics to assess the models' adequacy. Simulation studies are conducted to evaluate the performance of the test statistics. Actual clinical trials data are analyzed to demonstrate the proposed models and test statistics.
