Nonparametric restricted mean analysis across multiple follow-up intervals

Abstract

We provide a nonparametric estimate of τ-restricted mean survival using follow-up information beyond τ when appropriate to improve precision. The variance accounts for correlation between follow-up windows. Both asymptotic calculations and simulation studies recommend follow-up intervals spaced approximately τ/2 apart.
