censor_source: Create a censor_source Object

Description

censor_source objects are used to define censorings as input for the derive_param_tte() function.

Note: This is a wrapper function for the more generic tte_source().

Usage

censor_source(
  dataset_name,
  filter = NULL,
  date,
  censor = 1,
  set_values_to = NULL
)

Value

An object of class censor_source, inheriting from class tte_source

Arguments

dataset_name

The name of the source dataset

The name refers to the dataset provided by the source_datasets parameter of derive_param_tte().

filter

An unquoted condition for selecting the observations from dataset which are events or possible censoring time points.

date

A variable or expression providing the date of the event or censoring. A date, or a datetime can be specified. An unquoted symbol or expression is expected.

Refer to derive_vars_dt() or convert_dtc_to_dt() to impute and derive a date from a date character vector to a date object.

censor

Censoring value

CDISC strongly recommends using 0 for events and positive integers for censoring.

set_values_to

A named list returned by exprs() defining the variables to be set for the event or censoring, e.g. exprs(EVENTDESC = "DEATH", SRCDOM = "ADSL", SRCVAR = "DTHDT"). The values must be a symbol, a character string, a numeric value, an expression, or NA.

Examples

Run this code
# Last study date known alive censor

censor_source(
  dataset_name = "adsl",
  date = LSTALVDT,
  set_values_to = exprs(
    EVNTDESC = "ALIVE",
    SRCDOM = "ADSL",
    SRCVAR = "LSTALVDT"
  )
)
