  1. Hazard ratios are for high (≥median) versus low (<median) biomarker levels. IMDC risk groups were included as cofactors in the multivariable analysis. Biomarkers were included in the multivariable analysis that had p < 0.1 in at least one of the univariate analyses for PFS or OS by treatment arm. P-interaction was obtained from a separate model that included the interaction between treatment and biomarker level
  2. * p < 0.05 for the analysis
