Cumulative PFS curve (a) and OS curve (b) of mDJA patients with high VEGF-A expression and cumulative PFS curve (c) and OS curve (d) of patients with low VEGF-A expression in the Bevacizumab+ Platinum (B+ P), Platinum (P) groups. In mDJA patients with high VEGF-A expression, the PFS was significantly longer in the B+ P group (median [95%CI] 26 months [15-]) than in the P group (6.5 months [4–10]; P = 0.025) (a). The OS tended to be longer in the B+ P group than in the P group (P = 0.056) (b). In mDJA patients with low VEGF-A expression, neither the PFS (c) nor the OS (d) was significantly longer in the B+ P group than in the P group (P = 0.519 and P = 0.642, respectively). PFS: progression-free survival, OS: overall survival, mDJA: metastatic duodenal and jejunal adenocarcinoma, VEGF-A: vascular endothelial growth factor A
