Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
To compare the 3 years Disease Free Survival (DFS) between the two treatment arms. <br/ ><br>DFS is defined as the time from randomization to the first evidence of recurrence or death from <br/ ><br>any cause.Timepoint: Disease free survival for 3 Years between 2 Arms.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Dose modification and discontinuation rates of chemotherapy in the patients receiving <br/ ><br>adjuvant chemotherapy.Timepoint: Throughout the Study period.;Safety in terms of toxicities according to National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common <br/ ><br>Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v5.0.Timepoint: Throughout the Study period.;To compare the 3-year Overall Survival (OS) between the two treatment arms. <br/ ><br>OS is defined as the time from randomization to the time of occurrence of death <br/ ><br>regardless of its cause.Timepoint: Overall survival for 3 Years between 2 Arms. <br/ ><br>;To compare the quality of life scales between the two groups. Quality of life (QOL) will <br/ ><br>be measured using the EORTC-QLQ-30 questionnaires at the time points specified in the <br/ ><br>protocol.Timepoint: Till End of Study.
