NOTE. Patients were tabulated by objective response (responder v nonresponder) and metabolic response (partial metabolic response [PMR] v stable metabolic disease [SMD]/progressive metabolic disease [PMD]). Objective response was based on RECIST v1.0 (responder: confirmed complete response or partial response; nonresponder: unconfirmed partial response, stable disease, progressive disease, or unknown). Metabolic response was based on European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer criteria.

Abbreviations: NPV, negative predictive value; PPV, positive predictive value.
