Likelihood ratio test, compared to base model.

a

ECOG = 1

b

ECOG = 2.

RSE, relative standard error (%); PSA, prostate-specific antigen; PSA0, predicted individual predicted baseline level of PSA; PSAAUC, AUC under the PSA-time curve; CFB, relative maximum change from baseline (%); TTN, time (days) to PSA nadir; KD, PSA growth inhibition rate. The survival function S is given by: S=1-(shape/scale)*(t/scale)(shape-1) with scale=(exp(Intercept+βn*covn +(..) + βn*covn)) for covariate n and its associate regression coefficient βn.
