Recurrence free survival is defined as the time from randomization to the date of the recurrence confirmed by independent reviewer
Secondary outcomes
Overall survival (OS)
Overall survival is defined as the time from randomization to death due to any cause.
Recurrence free survival (RFS) by investigator

Quality of Life (QoL) EORTC QLQ-C30
The QLQ-C30 is composed of both multi-item scales and single-item measures. These include five functional scales, three symptom scales, a global health status / QoL scale, and six single items. Each of the multi-item scales includes a different set of items - no item occurs in more than one scale. All of the scales and single-item measures range in score from 0 to 100. A higher score represents a higher ("better") level of functioning, or a higher ("worse") level of symptoms.
