The May 1, 2017, article by Rosenthal et al, entitled “Evidence of Stage Shift in Women Diagnosed With Ovarian Cancer During Phase II of the United Kingdom Familial Ovarian Cancer Screening Study” (J Clin Oncol 35:1411-1420, 2017), was published with an error.
The second paragraph of the Results stated: “Follow-up until date of last cancer registration (or death, if this occurred previously) was possible for 4,336 women (99.7%). Twelve women emigrated, so they could not be observed via registries for the entire period. Median follow-up beyond last screen/withdrawal was 4.8 years (range, 0.1 to 8.7 years).”
This should have stated “Follow-up was possible for 4,046 women (93.1%). Median follow-up beyond last screen/withdrawal was 4.7 years (range, 0 to 8.7 years).”
The online version has been corrected in departure from the print. The authors apologize for the error.
