FAKTION: reconstructed Kaplan–Meier curves
Fulvestrant plus capivasertib versus placebo after relapse or progression on an aromatase inhibitor in metastatic, oestrogen receptor-positive breast cancer (FAKTION): a multicentre, randomised, controlled, phase 2 trial. Curves rebuilt as patient-level data (Guyot 2012) and checked against the statistics printed on the figure.

Progression-free survival
From figure panel · validated against the values printed on the figure · curve source: pixel measurement confirmed by vision model
Reconstructed from the published curve. Median: Fulvestrant plus capivasertib 10.3 months; Fulvestrant plus placebo 4.8 months. Survival at 12 months: Fulvestrant plus capivasertib 45%; Fulvestrant plus placebo 20%. Hazard ratio Fulvestrant plus capivasertib vs Fulvestrant plus placebo 0.56 (95% CI 0.38–0.82).
