In this article, a general central limit theorem for a triangular array of m-dependent random variables is presented. Here, m may tend to infinity with the row index at a certain rate. Our theorem is a generalization of previous results. Some examples are given that show that the generalization...

In cancer clinical trials, tumor response, defined in terms of predetermined relative decrease in tumor size, and overall survival are often used to evaluate treatment efficacy. Investigators often attempt to demonstrate a positive relationship betwen the two measures by comparing the survival...
