Survival in patients with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia. The question at the time was whether the standard course of chemotherapy should be extended ('maintainance') for additional cycles.

Usage

aml
leukemia

Format

time:survival or censoring time
status:censoring status

Note

The usage above assumes that the survival package is attached via library(survival) or via another package that depends on survival, e.g., mstate. If not, then either survival::aml can be used or data(cancer, package="survival").
