I suppose the matching could be performed without reference to the
time-dependent variables. However, after the match, I would like to
perform the survival regression including the time-dependent variables.
In contrast, the only work that I was able to come across dealing with
this situation is by Bo Lu (2005), summarizing that it is desirable to
balance the distribution of the covariates at every time point in
observational studies with a time-dependent treatment and time-dependent
covariates.
