Outcome results
Percentage of Participants With Disease Free Survival (DFS)
Percentage of participants with DFS who completed 5 year follow-up visit.
Time frame: 3m, 6m, 9m, 1y, 1.5y, 2y, 2.5y, 3y, 3.5y, 4y, 4.5y, 5y
Population: Intent to treat (ITT)
| Arm | Measure | Value (NUMBER) |
|---|---|---|
| Epirubicin | Percentage of Participants With Disease Free Survival (DFS) | 83.7 Percentage of participants |
Time to Progression (TTP)
Time frame: 3m, 6m, 9m, 1y, 1.5y, 2y, 2.5y, 3y, 3.5y, 4y, 4.5y, 5y
Population: 16.3% of patients had experienced disease progression by the end of the study. As this is less than 50% the median time to progression is not defined.
Time to Recurrence (DFI)
Time frame: 3m, 6m, 9m, 1y, 1.5y, 2y, 2.5y, 3y, 3.5y, 4y, 4.5y, 5y
Population: Median time to recurrence was not reached.
