*

P calculated by Wald test.

Regions collapsed because of small sample sizes.

Single, separated, widowed, and divorced categories were collapsed.

§

Defined as positive if estrogen receptor–positive or progesterone receptor–positive. Defined as negative if estrogen receptor–negative or progesterone receptor–negative, and neither were positive. Patients with unknown hormone receptor status were considered hormone receptor positive.

The majority of patients received doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, and paclitaxel.

The majority of patients received doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide.

#

The majority of patients received docetaxel and carboplatin.
