Breast cancer recurrence-free survival events (cumulative incidence) — Luminal (hormone receptor positive, HER2-negative)
From figure panel A · validated against the values printed on the figure · curve source: vision model
Reconstructed from the published curve. Cumulative incidence at 3 years: FEC/D 8%; tDD EC/D 5%. Hazard ratio tDD EC/D vs FEC/D 0.82 (95% CI 0.64–1.06).
