Hi,

I am looking for a data set containing the information from a randomized trial evaluating the effect of DES (diethylsilbestrol) on multiple time-to-event endpoints, prostate cancer, CVD, and other causes. The original source of this data is Green and Byar (1980). This is a popular competing risks problem that has subsequently been discussed in a number of statistical papers including Kay (1986). Does anyone have a digital version of this data set?
This data is also presented in Andrews, D. F. and Herzberg, A. M. (1985). Data.   
Does a digital version of all the data sets in A & H exist?

Thanks very much,
Ravi.

An R binary dataset is at http://biostat.mc.vanderbilt.edu/Datasets

Note that there is something strange about the AP variable with a lot of ties at some value near 1.0. I have never been able to find any documentation about this problem. If you find any please let me know.

Frank
