โฆ Synopsis
In this paper Bayeaian approach isaklopted to develop inferences about parametera in proportional odds models. Bayesian posteriorintervals for coefficienta in proportional odds models are derived by using approximation given in PBEaIBoN (1981). The resulta are illustrated by using the lung cancer survival data reported by PILENTICE (1973).

The interest in estimating the probability of cure has been increasing in cancer survival analysis as the curability of many cancer diseases is becoming a reality. Mixture survival models provide a way of modelling time to death when cure is possible, simultaneously estimating death hazard of fatal
