Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
Primary5-year Overall Survival Rate
Follow-up assessments performed every 3 months for patients < 2 years from randomization, every 6 months for patients 2-5 years from randomization, and every 12 months for patients 5-10 years from randomization
Overall survival (OS) was defined as time from randomization to date of death from any cause. Patients who were still alive were censored at last date of known alive. Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate the 5-year OS rate.
Secondary5-year Disease-free Survival Rate
Follow-up assessments performed every 3 months for patients < 2 years from randomization, every 6 months for patients 2-5 years from randomization, and every 12 months for patients 5-10 years from randomization
Disease-free survival (DFS) was defined as time from randomization to recurrence, second invasive primary cancer or death, whichever occurred first. Patients who were still alive and had no DFS events were censored at the last disease assessment date known to be free of DFS events. Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate 5-year DFS rate.
SecondaryPatterns of Failure
Follow-up assessments performed every 3 months for patients < 2 years from randomization, every 6 months for patients 2-5 years from randomization, and every 12 months for patients 5-10 years from randomization
Failure included recurrence, second primary cancer and death without recurrence.
SecondaryProportion of Patients Who Completed 12 Cycles of Treatmentassessed at the end of treatment
In the study, treatment was repeated every 2 weeks for a total of 12 cycles on both arms. The total number of cycles of treatment patient received until going off treatment due to any reason was recorded. It was a measure of the tolerance of the therapy.
OtherChange in Rectal Function Between Baseline and 12 Monthsassessed at baseline and 12 months after randomization
Change in rectal function between baseline and 12 months was measuring the long-term rectal function among the patients. Rectal function was measured using the Bowel Function Questionnaire at baseline and 12 months after randomization. The total score of the questionnaire was calculated as the number of problems with bowel function (score range 0-11). Change in rectal function between baseline and 12 months= total score at 12 months - total score at baseline. A negative value indicated improved rectal function. This change in score was calculated for each individual patient who had the data.
OtherChange in Oxaliplatin-related Neurotoxicity Between Baseline and 12 Monthsassessed at baseline and 12 months after randomization
Change in oxaliplatin-related neurotoxicity between baseline and 12 months was measuring the long-term symptom of oxaliplatin-related neurotoxicity among the patients. Oxaliplatin-related neurotoxicity was measured using the FACT/GOG-Ntx subscale at baseline and 12 months after randomization. The range of the total score of the scale was between 0 and 44, and lower values indicate higher neurotoxicity. Change in oxaliplatin-related neurotoxicity between baseline and 12 months= total score at 12 months - total score at baseline. A negative value indicated worsened symptom. This change in score was calculated for each individual patient who had the data.

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIEDChange in Rectal Function Between Baseline and 12 Monthsassessed at baseline and 12 months after randomization
Patients with data about their rectal function measured using the Bowel Function Questionnaire at both baseline and 12 months after randomization. Due to the early termination of the trial, the sample size was quite small for the endpoint. Consequently, it was considered as an exploratory endpoint.
