Abstract
On Hypergeometric Generalized Negative Binomial Distribution in Promotion Time Cure Model In analysis of survival data if exposes a high percentage of censoring due to termination of the study, whereas the study has lasted long enough, it is preferred to utilize cure models. These models, which are based on the latent variable distribution, has obtained much attention in the last decade. In this paper the Hypergeometric Generalized Negative Binomial distribution of the latent variable is used to model the long time survival data. The new model parameters are estimated in Bayesian approach. This model is applied for a Primary Biliary Cirrhosis clinical trial data and a simulated data set. With respect to DIC, Hypergeometric Generalized Negative Binomial model is a suitable fit to the data.
