Hi Rs,

I am analyzing a time to event dataset with several competing risks.

0 = Active by end of study
1 = Stopped treatment to start another treatment
2 = Lost
3 = Dead

My event of interest in Lost to Followup but starting a different treatment
and dying are competing risks.  All 1,2,3 events are events of exiting the
study, but it's only 2-LTFU that we are concerned with  (I know I am
repeating myself, sorry).

I can't seem to find a package or function that can handle 2 competing
risks for the main event.  I realize I may be using the well-known ones,
timereg and cmprisk, wrong.  And if I am, then I'd appreciate a correction.

Here's the model I tried (and it crashes)

comp.risk(Surv(futime, retention==2) ~ sex, data=dta, dta$retention,
causeS=c(1,3), resample.iid=1, n.sim=100)

I apologize, but I am cannot create the example dataset using code.  I am
not able.

The data, though is one to one.

ID   retention  sex  futime
------------------------------------
1       0           1     524.3


etc.

Thank you, in advance, if you can help me.

Best,

Jen
