Long-term excess hazards for cancer survival sometimes tend to zero or become negative even though we expect them to be positive. This may be explained by selection at diagnosis; individuals with certain cancers may have an increased risk of dying of other diseases in general. Then comparing with po

Cancer incidence rates for Swedish twins born between 1928 and 1965 and who both were alive at age 30 are studied by means of bivariate frailty models. Altogether, 7,280 fraternal (DZ) and 4,699 identical (MZ) twin pairs were followed up through December 31, 1995, for cancer status. The association
