Підсумок	Multicenter Kaplan-Meier analysis applies the Kaplan-Meier nonparametric estimator to time-to-event data collected from two or more clinical centers. By pooling or stratifying data across sites, it estimates survival functions and compares them between treatment groups while accounting for potential center effects, enabling conclusions with greater statistical power and broader generalizability than single-center studies.	Multicenter Cox proportional hazards regression extends the classic Cox PH model to studies conducted at two or more clinical sites or centers. It estimates the effect of predictors on time-to-event outcomes while explicitly accounting for clustering within centers, between-center heterogeneity, and potential differences in baseline hazard across sites. This design is standard practice in large multicenter RCTs and observational cohort studies in oncology, cardiology, and other clinical fields.
