*From stratified Cox model

For the objective response analysis, n = 81 for the RAS WT bevacizumab group and n = 78 for the RAS WT/BRAF WT bevacizumab group

As assessed by RECIST

Defined as the odds of having an objective response in the panitumumab + mFOLFOX6 arm relative to the odds in the bevacizumab + mFOLFOX6 arm
