ST03: reconstructed Kaplan–Meier curves
Peri-operative chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab in operable oesophagogastric adenocarcinoma (UK Medical Research Council ST03): primary analysis results of a multicentre, open-label, randomised phase 2-3 trial. Curves rebuilt as patient-level data (Guyot 2012) and checked against the statistics printed on the figure.

Reconstructed from the published curve. Median: Epirubicin, cisplatin, and capecitabine 33.2 months; Epirubicin, cisplatin, and capecitabine plus bevacizumab 33.4 months. Survival at 18 months: Epirubicin, cisplatin, and capecitabine 68%; Epirubicin, cisplatin, and capecitabine plus bevacizumab 66%. Hazard ratio Epirubicin, cisplatin, and capecitabine vs Epirubicin, cisplatin, and capecitabine plus bevacizumab 0.93 (95% CI 0.79–1.11).
