Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Percentage of Participants With Disease Free Survival at 5 Years
From randomization until relapse or death or up to 5 years

Disease Free Survival was defined as the interval from the date of randomization to the date of local, regional or metastatic relapse or the date of second primary cancer (with the exception of curatively treated non-melanoma skin cancer or in situ carcinoma of the cervix) or death from any cause whichever occured first. Disease free survival was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.

Secondary Endpoints

Percentage of Participants With Disease Free Survival at 10 Years
From randomization until relapse or death or up to 10 years
Overall Survival- Percentage of Participants Who Survived at 10 Years
From randomization until death or up to 10 years
