    description
    The disease status of a participant's lymph nodes (positive or negative and number affected) was one of the study's randomization stratification factors. Nodal status may have taken any of the four categories for participants who enrolled under protocol version A, but only the two categories with positive nodes after protocol version B had been implemented.

    description
    The protocol version at enrollment (Version A or B) was one of the study's randomization stratification factors. The amendment from protocol version A (28-June-2011) to version B (20-Nov-2012) was made mainly to adjust for a higher than expected rate of recruitment of node-negative patients. Therefore, the trial sample size was increased from N=3806 to N=4800 and node-negative patients were no longer permitted to enroll.

    description
    The disease status of a participant's lymph nodes (positive or negative and number affected) was one of the study's randomization stratification factors. Nodal status may have taken any of the four categories for participants who enrolled under protocol version A, but only the two categories with positive nodes after protocol version B had been implemented.

        Protocol Version B
    description
    The protocol version at enrollment (Version A or B) was one of the study's randomization stratification factors. The amendment from protocol version A (28-June-2011) to version B (20-Nov-2012) was made mainly to adjust for a higher than expected rate of recruitment of node-negative patients. Therefore, the trial sample size was increased from N=3806 to N=4800 and node-negative patients were no longer permitted to enroll.
