Biostatistics and Bioinformatics Applications for Cancer Research


Survival Analysis:

Cancer Survival Analysis Suite (CASAS)

Survival analysis in cancer research is one of the most fundamental analysis methods, answering the frequent question of whether a marker is associated with overall survival. We dive deeper into this question by testing marker associations that occur ‘early’ vs. later vs. a landmark start time.
CASAS








With CASAS, you can use:

  • Any data set with survival information

With CASAS, you can define:

  • Markers associated with survival starting with either a ‘landmark’ time or ‘early on’ post treatment
  • Several gene associations for single cancer type or several cancer types associations for a single gene
  • Statistical significance of a prognostic signature
