The PHREG Procedure - Worcester Polytechnic Institute

The PHREG procedure performs regression analysis of survival data based on the Cox proportional hazards model. Cox’s semiparametric model is widely used in the analysis of survival data to explain the effect of explanatory variables on survival times.

A Step-by-Step Guide to Survival Analysis

The PHREG procedure fits the proportional hazards model of Cox (1972, 1975) to survival data that may be right censored. The Cox model is a semiparametric model in which the hazard function of the survival time is given by ( ) 0 ( ; ) ( )

Cause-Specific Analysis of Competing Risks Using the …

On the other hand, the PHREG procedure provides two regression approaches for analyzing competing-risks data. You can apply Fine and Gray’s method to directly model the cumulative incidence function; alternatively, you can fit Cox proportional hazards models to cause-specific hazard functions. So, Lin, and Johnston (2015) provide a tutorial
