HIPECT4 (final analysis): reconstructed Kaplan–Meier curves
Efficacy and safety of intraoperative hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy for locally advanced colorectal cancer (HIPECT4): final analysis of randomized clinical trial. Curves rebuilt as patient-level data (Guyot 2012) and checked against the statistics printed on the figure.

Locoregional control
From figure panel · curves cross-checked by two independent readings · curve source: pixel measurement confirmed by vision model
Reconstructed from the published curve. Median: HIPEC not reached; Surgery only not reached. Survival at 12 months: HIPEC 100%; Surgery only 95%. Hazard ratio HIPEC vs Surgery only 0.19 (95% CI 0.04–0.86).
| Arm | N | Events | Median (Months) |
|---|---|---|---|
| HIPEC | 89 | 2 | not reached |
| Surgery only | 95 | 11 | not reached |
- HIPEC vs Surgery only: reconstructed HR 0.19 (95% CI 0.04–0.86)
Landmark survival (reconstructed)
| Time | HIPEC | Surgery only |
|---|---|---|
| 6 mo | 100.0% | 96.8% |

| 18 mo | 97.5% | 92.4% |
