Differential discontinuations across treatment arms in a randomized clinical trial can potentially bias the estimate of the treatment effect. In this work we study the effect of varying parameters (level and pattern of discontinuation, size of treatment effect etc.) on survival estimates in the safety context. Specifically, we study the effect of varying different simulation parameters, in a structured and systematic manner, on the hazard ratio estimates for time-to-event endpoints.
