The weighted log-rank tests based on stratified clustered survival data : saddle-point p-values and confidence intervals

Clinical studies sometimes provide clustered data with censored failure times. A crucial factor of the randomized design that lessens selection bias is the random allocation rule. Given this, the weighted rank tests' p-values for stratified survival clustered sampling based on the random allocation rule are approximated using the double saddle-point approximation technique. For tests of significance and confidence intervals for the treatment effect, this approximation can be utilized. Through simulation experiments, the accuracy of the saddle-point approximation is examined by comparing saddle-point and normal approximations to the exact underlying permutation distribution.
