Multivariable Adjustment for Confounding Factors for Progression-free Survival by Cox Proportional Hazards Regression Model Stratified by Immune-related Adverse Events
| HR for Disease Progression or Death (95% CI) | P | |
|---|---|---|
| Standard vs. nonstandard group | 2.6 (0.7-9.6) | .157 |
| Never vs. current/former smoker | 4.2 (1.6-11.3) | .004 |
| Pembrolizumab alone vs. along with chemotherapy | 2.7 (1.2-6.2) | .016 |
| < 50% vs. ≥ 50% PD-L1 TPS | 0.9 (0.4-2.1) | .873 |
| ECOG PS ≥ 2 vs. 0-1 | 0.8 (0.4-1.9) | .700 |
| No. of treatment cycles | 0.7 (0.6-0.8) | <.001 |
Abbreviations: CI = Confidence interval; ECOG = Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group; HR = hazard ratio; PD-L1 = programmed death-ligand 1; PS = performance status; TPS = tumor proportion score.
Bold values are significant.
