Abstract

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women and the leading cause of cancer-related death in Indonesia. Analysis of survival data is important for improving the treatment and care of breast cancer patients. This study aims to estimate the parameters, find the survival function, and hazard function of breast cancer patients using a parametric method with an exponential distribution. Previous studies have shown that the Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) method is suitable for estimating the survival function from exponential survival data by censoring. In this study, the exponential distribution was found to be the best for data on breast cancer patients from Surabaya Ontology Hospital. The estimated parameters are θ = 33.9157, and the survival function is calculated using The estimated hazard function for patient death or failure is 0.0295. The results of this study can contribute to the development of better treatment and care strategies for breast cancer patients. However, further research is needed because this study only used monthly time units.
