Description: The package performs estimation and testing of the
        treatment effect in a 2-group randomized clinical trial with a
        quantitative, dichotomous, or right-censored time-to-event
        endpoint. The method improves efficiency by leveraging baseline
        predictors of the endpoint. The inverse probability weighting
        technique of Robins, Rotnitzky, and Zhao (JASA, 1994) is used
        to provide unbiased estimation when the endpoint is missing at
        random.
