Hi, I would like to perform Cox proportional hazard survival analysis as well as logistic regression analysis in R. At this moment I'm using the SPSS program to do these analysis (forward or backward conditional, to build a model and to obtain the hazard ratios). However, it is unclear to me which package and commands I can use to do exactly the same in R? For Cox you can used coxph: however, it is unclear how you can do it with the forward conditional method? Is there a way to do it in R? And what with logistic regression?

That's more an R question than a bioconductor question, I suppose. I am not extremely familiar with SPSS but I suspect that "forward conditional" means here "forward conditional selection" (and that's variable selection). stepAIC() in MASS should work with coxph. (a quick check on the mailing list archives seems to confirm it https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2003-February/030075.html ) L.
