Abstract

The case-cohort design was developed to reduce costs when disease incidence is low and covariates are difficult to obtain. However, most of the existing methods are for right-censored data and there exists only limited research on interval-censored data, especially on regression analysis of bivariate interval-censored data. Interval-censored failure time data frequently occur in many areas and a large literature on their analyses has been established. In this paper, we discuss the situation of bivariate interval-censored data arising from case-cohort studies. For the problem, a class of semiparametric transformation frailty models is presented and for inference, a sieve weighted likelihood approach is developed. The large sample properties, including the consistency of the proposed estimators and the asymptotic normality of the regression parameter estimators, are established. Moreover, a simulation is conducted to assess the finite sample performance of the proposed method and suggests that it performs well in practice.
