Abstract: We propose parametric inferences for quantile event times with adjustment for covariates on competing risks data. We develop parametric quantile inferences using parametric regression modeling of the cumulative incidence function from the cause-specific hazard and direct approaches. Maximum likelihood inferences are developed for estimation of the cumulative incidence function and quantiles. We develop the construction of parametric confidence intervals for quantiles. Simulation studies show that the proposed methods perform well. We illustrate the methods using early stage breast cancer data.
