We consider the corrective approach (Theoretical Statistics, Chapman & Hall, London, 1974, p. 310) and preventive approach (Biometrica 80 (1993) 27) to bias reduction of maximum likelihood estimators under the logistic regression model based on case–control data. The proposed bias-corrected maximum likelihood estimators are based on the semiparametric profile log likelihood function under a two-sample semiparametric model, which is equivalent to the assumed logistic regression model. We show that the prospective and retrospective analyses on the basis of the corrective approach to bias reduction produce identical bias-corrected maximum likelihood estimators of the odds ratio parameter, but this does not hold when using the preventive approach unless the case and control sample sizes are identical. We present some results on simulation and on the analysis of two real data sets.
