SCOT (primary analysis): reconstructed Kaplan–Meier curves

Updated 2026-09-25 · reconstructed by TrialCurve from a CC BY-licensed publication

3 versus 6 months of adjuvant oxaliplatin-fluoropyrimidine combination therapy for colorectal cancer (SCOT): an international, randomised, phase 3, non-inferiority trial. Curves rebuilt as patient-level data (Guyot 2012) and checked against the statistics printed on the figure.

Disease-free survival

From figure panel A · validated against the values printed on the figure · curve source: vision model

Reconstructed from the published curve. Median: 3 months not reached; 6 months not reached. Survival at 2 years: 3 months 81%; 6 months 81%. Hazard ratio 3 months vs 6 months 1.00 (95% CI 0.90–1.10).
