st: Dropping right-censored spells in the Cox model

Dear all,
I have estimated competing-risks Cox models on unemployment spells. The estimates are not very significant probably due to the small number of spells. I wonder whether the high proportion of censored spells in the model (50%) matter. Does it make sense if I drop all the right-censored spells and estimate the models with all spells being completed? Thank you very much in advance.
Best regards,
Kai Huang
