SAE serious adverse event, TEAE treatment-emergent adverse event

aNeoadjuvant period, surgery, and adjuvant period, or at least 1 year (including follow-up) from the first administration of study drug in the neoadjuvant period in patients who discontinued treatment early without completing the adjuvant phase

bTEAEs were considered to be related to study drug if the relationship was defined as ‘possible’, ‘probable’, or ‘definite’
