Summary: | Abstract Case-control studies are important and useful methods for studying health outcomes and many methods have been developed for analyzing case-control data. Those methods, however, are vulnerable to mismeasurement of variables; biased results are often produced if such a feature is ignored. In this paper, we develop an inference method for handling case-control data with interacting misclassified covariates. We use the prospective logistic regression model to feature the development of the disease. To characterize the misclassification process, we consider a practical situation where replicated measurements of error-prone covariates are available. Our work is motivated in part by a breast cancer case-control study where two binary covariates are subject to misclassification. Extensions to other settings are outlined.
