Treatment arm A (reference arm): 5-FU/LV (5-fluorouracil and leucovorin) with CPT-11 (irinotecan); treatment arm F: 5-FU/LV with OXAL (oxaliplatin); treatment arm G: OXAL with CPT-11. CI = confidence interval; HR = hazard ratio; HR1 = HR for progression in semicompeting risks analysis; HRC = HR for composite endpoint; HR1* = HR for progression in univariate analysis; HR2 = HR for death given that progression has not occurred in semicompeting risks analysis; HR2* = HR for death in univariate analysis; HR3 = HR for death given that progression has occurred in semicompeting risks analysis; PFS = progression-free survival.
