From randomization to last follow-up. Analysis was to occur after 180 deaths were reported. Analysis occurred after 214 deaths were reported. Median follow-up at time of analysis was 8.3 years.

What was measured

KRAS (Kirsten Rat Sarcoma Viral Oncogene Homolog) is a gene that helps control how cells grow. Some people have a change in this gene, which can be detected (variant/non-variant) by a genetic test performed on tissue from their tumor. Research suggests that this change may influence how head and neck cancer responds to certain treatments. An event for overall survival is death due to any cause. Survival time is defined as time from randomization to the date of death or last known follow-up (censored). Rates are estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. The protocol endpoint is hazard ratio, which is reported in the statistical analysis results. Five-year rate is reported simply as summary data; it is not the outcome measure.
