PFS, progression-free survival, defined as the time from the date of diagnosis to the first date of clinical evaluation or imaging leading to subsequent relapse detection; clinical detection, defined by patient-reported symptoms at the time of confirmed detection of disease, concerning physical exam findings documented during a clinical visit, or abnormal lab values on prior follow-up; surveillance detection, defined by relapse of disease first suggested on imaging reviewed by a radiologist, as part of a routine surveillance schedule, and later confirmed by other diagnostic means.

Variables are presented as N and median survival in years or survival% (95% confidence interval) unless otherwise noted.

Abbreviations: KM, survival probability estimated using the Kaplan-Meir method; N, total number.
