[R] C-statistic comparison with partially paired datasets

[Hanneke Wijnhoven]

Does anyone know of an R-function or method to compare two C-statistics 
(Harrells's C - rcorr.cens) obtained from 2 different models in 
partially paired datasets (i.e. some similar and some different cases), 
with one continuous independent variable in each separate model? (in a 
survival analysis context)?
I have noticed that the rcorrp.cens function can be used for paired data.
   
Thanks for any help,
