Table 2.

Subdistribution hazard ratios (SHRs) estimated from a Fine & Gray model, log-cumulative subdistribution hazards flexible parametric model (Log-CSDH FPM) and a Log-CSDH FPM adjusted for time-depedent effects on the competing events (Log-CSDH FPM2). SHRs compare regional stage patients to localised stage patients aged 75 to 84 years old assuming proportionality.
