Package: crrstep Type: Package Title: Stepwise Covariate Selection for the Fine & Gray Competing Risks Regression Model Version: 2025.1.1 Date: 2025-12-31 Authors@R: c(person(given = "Ravi", family = "Varadhan", role = c("aut", "cre"), email = "ravi.varadhan@jhu.edu"), person(given = "Deborah", family = "Kuk", role = "aut"), person(given = "Leon", family = "Wang", role = "ctb")) Description: Performs forward and backward stepwise regression for the proportional subdistribution hazards model in competing risks (Fine & Gray 1999). Procedure uses AIC, BIC and BICcr as selection criteria. BICcr has a penalty of k = log(n*), where n* is the number of primary events. This version includes improved handling of factors, interactions, and polynomial terms.
