- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Progression-free survival (PFS). Progression-free survival (PFS) is the time from the date of randomization to the date of event defined as the first documented progression or death due to any cause. If a patient has not had an event, PFS is censored at the date of last adequate tumor assessment.[Post completion of all chemotherapy cycles after surgery, patients will be followed clinically every 3 months and will have surveillance CT scan at 3, 6, 12, 24 and 36 months or as clinically indicated to monitor for PFS.]
