Table 2.

Empirical penetrance estimates by age 70 for the competing risks model with a time varying covariate (TVC) under low (k1=7), medium (k1=3.5), and high (k1=1) familial dependence; permanent exposure (PE), exponential decay (ED) or Cox and Oakes (CO) models are considered for TVC; F1(70; TVC, G) and F2(70; TVC, G) are cause-specific penetrance estimators (%) by age 70 for event 1 and event 2, respectively, given TVC and mutation status (G), and TVC occurred at age 35 if TVC=1.

For each scenario, the mean bias, empirical standard error (ESE), average standard error (ASE), and estimated 95% coverage probability (ECP) are obtained from 500 replicates each with n =500 families.
