Progression-free survival and overall survival at 5 years with a median observation time of 69 months. (A) Progression-free survival (PFS). (B) Overall survival (OS). CI: confidence interval.

Clinical response and undetectable minimal residual disease rate at different time points. (A) Individual minimal residual disease (MRD) status, clinical response, and outcome at different times. (B) Undetectable MRD rate at different time points. ER: early restaging at 4 months; EOT: end of treatment at 6 months; FU-1: 1-year follow-up; FU2: 2-year follow-up; Last-FU: last available control. Red dot: MRD+ (at least 1 MRD-positive sample, either bone marrow [BM] or peripheral blood [PB]); blue spot: MRD- (unmeasurable MRD); black dot: dead; CR: complete remission; PR: partial remission; SD: stable disease; R: relapse; P: progression; green arrow: alive at last FU.

Landmark progression-free survival analysis stratified by minimal residual disease evaluated at different time points. (A) Overall minimal residual disease (MRD) at early restaging after 3 bendamustine rituximab courses (ER). (B) Overall MRD at end of treatment (EOT). (C) Overall MRD at 1-year follow-up (FU-1). (D) Peripheral blood MRD at ER. PFS: progression-free survival; overall MRD: at least 1 MRD-positive sample (either bone marrow or peripheral blood); MRD-: unmeasurable MRD.
