Abstract
Cancer is one of the major health problems persisting worldwide. The data for the prognosis of cancer is taken from the National Cancer Registry Program (www.ncrpindia.org.in) [1]. We have analyzed the underlying pattern of distribution of incidence rates of lung cancer in males for the two regions such as Bengaluru and Mumbai and fitted model A by observing the pattern of the incidence rates of lung cancer in males. By intuition; we divided the data into 2 groups. For Group 1, the second-degree equation fitted well. For Group 2, the cubic spline model fitted well. The estimation of parameters involved in both Group 1 and Group 2 was estimated by using least squares method. Expressions for the variance of parameters of second-degree curves were derived.
