Likelihood ratio test P value for multivariable model with PA using restricted cubic splines versus model without PA. PA = physical activity; MVPA-SL = moderate- to vigorous-intensity physical activity during sports and leisure time in hours per week; MET = metabolic equivalent task; HRcrude = unadjusted hazard ratio; HRadj = odds ratio adjusted for sex, age, tumor type, setting, previous systemic therapy, type of therapy, and in case of HRadj, ECOG Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status.
