Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS) analysis after radiation therapy
Calculation of Overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS). Time-to-event endpoints are summarized as the median and corresponding 95% confidence interval using Kaplan-Meier method
Analysis of risk factors influencing outcome after radiation therapy
Calculation of log-rank tests. If possible, hazard ratios are calculated via Cox regression. Competing risk analysis is conducted as supportive analysis
Secondary outcomes
Number of patients with acute and late adverse events after radiation therapy
Predefined toxicity events are described by type, grade, frequency, and percentage across all time points. Fisher's exact tests are used for comparison (base line and defined time points). Quality of life symptom and function scales are used. Two-tailed tests with a significance level of 0.05 are used for all analyses. Adjustments for multiple testing may be used. Some of the analyses are exploratory and hypothesis generating
