ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryInvasive Disease-Free Survival (iDFS)From randomization until the occurrence of an iDFS event or death from any cause, whichever occurred earlier (up to 5 years)
iDFS was defined as the time from randomization until the date of the first occurrence of one of the following events: Ipsilateral invasive breast tumor recurrence (an invasive breast cancer involving the same breast parenchyma as the original primary lesion); Ipsilateral local-regional invasive breast cancer recurrence (an invasive breast cancer in the axilla, regional lymph nodes, chest wall, \&/or skin of the ipsilateral breast); Ipsilateral second primary invasive breast cancer; Contralateral invasive breast cancer; Distant recurrence (evidence of breast cancer in any anatomic site \[other than the sites mentioned\]) that has either been histologically confirmed \&/or clinically/radiographically diagnosed as recurrent invasive breast cancer; \& Death attributable to any cause, including breast cancer, non-breast cancer, or unknown cause. Analysis used Kaplan-Meier estimates where participants with no events at the time of analysis or no post-baseline information were censored.
SecondaryInvasive Disease-Free Survival (iDFS) in the Subpopulation With Programmed Death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) Selected Tumor Status (IC1/2/3)From randomization until the occurrence of an iDFS event or death from any cause, whichever occurred earlier (up to 5 years)
iDFS = the time from randomization until the date of the first occurrence of one of the following events: Ipsilateral invasive breast tumor recurrence (an invasive breast cancer involving the same breast parenchyma as the original primary lesion); Ipsilateral local-regional invasive breast cancer recurrence (an invasive breast cancer in the axilla, regional lymph nodes, chest wall, and/or skin of the ipsilateral breast); Ipsilateral second primary invasive breast cancer, Contralateral invasive breast cancer, Distant recurrence (i.e., evidence of breast cancer in any anatomic site \[other than the sites mentioned\]) that has either been histologically confirmed and/or clinically/radiographically diagnosed as recurrent invasive breast cancer and Death attributable to any cause, including breast cancer, non-breast cancer, or unknown cause. Analysis used Kaplan-Meier estimates where participants with no events at the time of analysis or no post-baseline information were censored.
SecondaryInvasive Disease-Free Survival (iDFS) in the Node Positive SubpopulationFrom randomization until the occurrence of an iDFS event or death from any cause, whichever occurred earlier (up to 5 years)
iDFS = the time from randomization until the date of the first occurrence of one of the following events: Ipsilateral invasive breast tumor recurrence (an invasive breast cancer involving the same breast parenchyma as the original primary lesion); Ipsilateral local-regional invasive breast cancer recurrence (an invasive breast cancer in the axilla, regional lymph nodes, chest wall, and/or skin of the ipsilateral breast); Ipsilateral second primary invasive breast cancer; Contralateral invasive breast cancer; Distant recurrence (evidence of breast cancer in any anatomic site \[other than the sites mentioned\]) that has either been histologically confirmed and/or clinically/radiographically diagnosed as recurrent invasive breast cancer; and Death attributable to any cause, including breast cancer, non-breast cancer, or unknown cause. Analysis used Kaplan-Meier estimates where participants with no events at the time of analysis or no post-baseline information were censored.
SecondaryOverall Survival (OS)From randomization up to death from any cause (up to 5 years)
Overall Survival (OS) is defined as the time from randomization to the date of death due to any cause. Analysis used Kaplan-Meier estimates where participants with no events at the time of analysis or no post-baseline information were censored.
SecondaryInvasive Disease-Free Survival (iDFS) Including Second Primary Non-Breast Invasive CancerFrom randomization up to death from any cause (up to 5 years)
iDFS = the time from randomization until the date of first occurrence of one of the events: Ipsilateral invasive breast tumor recurrence (an invasive breast cancer involving same breast parenchyma as the original primary lesion); Ipsilateral local-regional invasive breast cancer recurrence (an invasive breast cancer in axilla, regional lymph nodes, chest wall, \&/or skin of the ipsilateral breast); Ipsilateral second primary invasive breast cancer; Second primary non-breast invasive cancer; Contralateral invasive breast cancer; Distant recurrence (i.e., evidence of breast cancer in any anatomic site \[other than sites mentioned\]) that has either been histologically confirmed \&/or clinically/radiographically diagnosed as recurrent invasive breast cancer; Death attributable to any cause, including breast cancer, non-breast cancer, or unknown cause. Analysis used Kaplan-Meier estimates where participants with no events at the time of analysis or no post-baseline information were censored.
SecondaryRecurrence-Free Interval (RFI)From randomization up to 5 years
Recurrence-Free Interval (RFI) was defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of any recurrence (local, regional \[including invasive ipsilateral tumor and invasive locoregional tumor\], or distant), as determined by investigators. Analysis used Kaplan-Meier estimates where participants with no events at the time of analysis, participants with no events who died, or participants with no post-baseline information were censored.
SecondaryDistant Recurrence-Free Interval (DRFI)From randomization up to 5 years
Distant Recurrence-Free Interval (DRFI) was defined as the time from randomization to the distant breast cancer recurrence. Analysis used Kaplan-Meier estimates where participants with no events at the time of analysis, participants with no events who died, or participants with no post-baseline information were censored.
SecondaryDisease-Free Survival (DFS)From randomization up to first disease recurrence or death from any cause (up to 5 years)
Disease-Free Survival (DFS) was defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of disease recurrence or death from any cause. DFS events include: Ipsilateral invasive breast tumor recurrence; Ipsilateral local-regional invasive breast cancer recurrence; Distant recurrence that has either been histologically confirmed or clinically diagnosed as recurrent invasive breast cancer; Contralateral invasive breast cancer; Ipsilateral or contralateral DCIS; Second primary non-breast invasive cancer; Death attributable to any cause. Analysis used Kaplan-Meier estimates where participants with no events at the time of analysis or no post-baseline information were censored.
SecondaryChange From Baseline (CFB) in European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (QLQ-C30) Patient-reported Function (Role Functioning [Q6, Q7])
Baseline (Cycle 1 Day 1), Day 1 of Cycles 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 & 16; end of treatment/discontinuation (approximately at Day 351); Follow up: Months 3 to 48 (Total duration is up to 5 years); Cycles 1-5= 28 day cycles; Cycles 6-16: 21 day cycles
The EORTC QLQ-C30 is a cancer specific health-related quality-of life (QoL) questionnaire. For the role functioning scale, participant responses to the 2 questions "Q6: Were you limited in doing either your work or daily activities" and "Q7: Were you limited in pursuing your hobbies or other leisure time activities" were scored on a 4-point scale (1=Not at All to 4=Very Much). The scores were linearly transformed on a scale of 0 to 100, with a low score indicating better functioning. Negative change from baseline indicated improvement.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in EORTC QLQ-C30 Patient-reported Function (Physical Functioning [Q1-Q5])
Baseline (Cycle 1 Day 1), Day 1 of Cycles 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 & 16; end of treatment/discontinuation (approximately at Day 351); Follow up: Months 3 to 48 (Total duration is up to 5 years); Cycles 1-5= 28 day cycles; Cycles 6-16: 21 day cycles
The EORTC QLQ-C30 is a cancer specific health-related quality-of life (QoL) questionnaire. For the physical functioning scale, participant responses to 5 questions about daily activities (strenuous activities, long walks, short walks, bed/chair rest \& needing help with eating, dressing, washing themselves, or using the toilet) were scored on a 4-point scale (1=Not at All to 4=Very Much). The scores were linearly transformed on a scale of 0 to 100, with a high score indicating worst functioning. Negative change from baseline indicated improvement in functioning.
