Abstract: Cox proportional hazards model is the most common one in survival analysis. Buckley-James model can be offered as an alternative to Cox proportional hazards model. While Buckley-James model is focused on calculation of the expected value of the survival time, Cox proportional hazards model focuses on the relative risk of explanatory variables on the failure event. In this study, Buckley-James model is examined, and is applied on a breast cancer data set. Using this model risk factors affecting survival time of breast cancer is determined.
