The authors examine the article "Meta-Analysis for Surrogacy: Accelerated Failure Time Models and Semicompeting Risks Modeling," by D. Ghosh et al. They say that they agree with much of what was said in the paper and they will limit their few points of disagreement with the authors. They raise concerns about the treatment of death as a censoring time for recurrence. They also argue on the characterization of the disease-free survival time as a composite endpoint.
