Overall and disease free survival. A) Overall survival of all allocated patients. The distribution curves represent the results of an intention-to-treat survival analysis involving all patients. Patients who received preoperative chemotherapy had a median survival of 16 months; in comparison, patients who underwent only surgery had a median survival of 12 months (P = 0.03 by the log-rank test). B) Disease-free survival of all patients from a landmark time of 6 months after date of randomisation (P = 0.02 by the log-rank test).
