Figure 1.
Long-term progression-free survival survival (PFS) in the FCCam (dashed line) and FCR (solid line) arms of the study. PFS was estimated for the FCCam and FCR arms by the nonparametric Kaplan-Meier method and compared by log-rank test.

Figure 2.
Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) according to the presence of minimal residual disease (MRD) in the peripheral blood at month 9. PFS and OS were estimated for patients negative (MRD neg: solid line) and positive (MRD pos: dashed line) for MRD at month 9 (i.e. 3 months after treatment completion) by the non-parametric Kaplan-Meier method and compared by log-rank test.
