## Abstract Mixture cure models have been utilized to analyze survival data with possible cure. This paper considers the inclusion of frailty into the mixture cure model to model recurrent event data with a cure fraction. An attractive feature of the proposed model is the allowance for heterogeneit
## Abstract As the treatments of cancer progress, a certain number of cancers are curable if diagnosed early. In populationβbased cancer survival studies, cure is said to occur when mortality rate of the cancer patients returns to the same level as that expected for the general cancerβfree populati
