Abstract
- It has attracted a great deal of interest in randomized survival studies to assess the causal treatment effect under non-compliance with time-to-event outcomes. In this paper, the problem when one faces case–cohort studies for which covariates are usually too expensive to be measured or obtained for the full cohort and also the disease rate is generally low is considered. Furthermore, only interval-censored data may be available for the failure event of interest, a situation for which there does not seem to exist an established estimation procedure. To address the problem, a sieve inverse probability weighting estimation procedure is proposed, and the resulting estimators are shown to be consistent and asymptotically normal. A simulation study is conducted to evaluate the finite sample performance of the proposed approach and suggests that it works well in practice. In addition, the method is applied to a breast cancer screening study. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
