Hi,
I am conducting a study using a Cox proportional hazards model to predict 1-year overall survival (OS). As part of the study, I constructed a nomogram to provide an intuitive visualization of the prediction model. The nomogram demonstrated good discrimination, with a C-index of nearly 0.88 and an AUC-ROC of approximately 0.86. However, I am concerned about potential issues with the calibration curve and whether it might reflect underfitting or overestimation.
Additionally, I would like to know if there are any statistical tests specifically designed to evaluate calibration in the context of survival analysis. For logistic regression models, I am aware of the Hosmer-Lemeshow test, which assesses goodness-of-fit. Is there a comparable test or method for calibration assessment in Cox proportional hazards models?
I would greatly appreciate your observations and advice on the following:
I have attached the calibration curve (Graph 1) for your review. I would be grateful for any feedback, suggestions, or shared experiences that could help refine my approach.
