Time-to-Event Analysis in HEOR Explained | Kaplan-Meier, Hazard Ratio & Survival Analysis

What is Time-to-Event Analysis, and why is it important in Health Economics and Outcomes Research (HEOR)? In this video, HEOR Insights introduces the fundamental concepts of Time-to-Event Analysis and Survival Analysis, statistical methods used to analyse the time until an event of interest occurs. These methods are important in clinical trials, real-world evidence (RWE), health technology assessment (HTA) and health economic modelling. This video builds foundational knowledge of survival analysis and explains how its key concepts connect with clinical outcomes and cost-effectiveness analysis. In this video, we discuss: What is Time-to-Event Analysis? The role of survival analysis in clinical research and HEOR Survival function, hazard and censoring Kaplan–Meier survival curves Overall Survival (OS) versus Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Hazard Ratio (HR) and its interpretation Introduction to the Cox Proportional Hazards Model Parametric survival models, including Weibull, Exponential and Log-normal distributions The relevance of survival analysis in HTA and health economic evaluation Survival extrapolation in cost-effectiveness analysis Connections between survival outcomes, Quality-Adjusted Life Years (QALYs) and the Incremental Cost-Effectiveness Ratio (ICER) Why survival analysis is a useful concept for aspiring HEOR professionals Who should watch this video? B.Pharm, M.Pharm and Pharm.D students Life sciences and public health graduates Aspiring HEOR analysts Clinical research and real-world evidence professionals Learners interested in HTA, economic modelling and pharmaceutical consulting Understanding time-to-event analysis can help build a foundation for learning clinical evidence evaluation and survival modelling in HEOR.
