Impact of RDI Levels of FOLFOX Chemotherapy on All-Cause Mortality and Cause-Specific Mortality in Low-Risk Stage III Colon Cancer— Multivariable Analysis
RDI | All-Cause Mortality (N = 221)b | Cause-Specific Mortality (N = 216) | |||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Low RDI% (RDI<Selected Cutoffs | Adjusted HRa (95% CI) | P | Adjusted HRa (95% CI) | P | |
RDI< 45% vs. RDI≥ 45% | 16.3 | 0.80 (0.24, 2.73) | .72 | 0.53 (0.06, 4.95) | .58 |
RDI< 50% vs. RDI≥ 50% | 19.9 | 1.26 (0.47, 3.41) | .65 | 0.75 (0.16, 3.46) | .71 |
RD< 55% vs. RDI≥ 55% | 22.2 | 1.24 (0.46, 3.33) | .67 | 0.74 (0.16, 3.39) | .70 |
RDI< 60% vs. RDI≥ 60% | 27.2 | 1.08 (0.41, 2.81) | .88 | 0.40 (0.09, 1.84) | .24 |
RDI< 65% vs. RDI≥ 65% | 31.7 | 0.96 (0.36, 2.59) | .94 | 0.79 (0.16, 3.96) | .78 |

Models adjusted for age, sex, race/ethnicity, insurance coverage, number of positive lymph nodes, tumor grade, Charlson comorbidity index, anatomic subsite, colon cancer classification (colon as the only cancer vs. multiple primary cancers), and delayed chemotherapy.
All variables met the proportional hazards assumption with P values of the correlation coefficient between Schoenfeld residuals and time > .05.
