Derived from mRNA profiling data using the Almac Lung Cancer-DSA microarray (1,030 selected genes) [11]. FDR was calculated across 1,030 genes for each endpoint and biomarker type.

Abbreviations: FDR, False Discovery Rate; HR, hazard ratio; IL, interleukin; mRNA, messenger ribonucleic acid; N, number of patients; NKX2-1, NK2 homeobox 1; nsNSCLC, non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer; OS, overall survival; PFS, progression-free survival; TTF-1, transcription factor 1.
