Footnote: Factors adjusted in the multivariable models include age, menopausal status, chemotherapy (CAF vs. CMF), tamoxifen treatment, and time from surgery to randomization.
In ordinal models, it was assumed there is a linear relationship between toxicity grades as well as between counts of grade 4 toxicity.
FRRP, false positive report probability was calculated for an assumed prior probability of associations with toxicities of 0.1. An FPRP below 0.5 was deemed as a suggestive association and an FPRP below 0.2 was deemed as a more definitive association.
