POST_HOC outcome

Timeframe: Until signs of recurrence or until 360 local DFS events have occurred (median follow-up of 4.5 years)

Population: This analysis includes patients having a CAIX Expression equal or above the CAIX score of 2.6.

This analysis includes patients having a CAIX Expression equal or above the CAIX score of 2.6. The CAIX score is determined on the basis of CAIX expression via immunohistochemistry described by a combination of tumor cell extent and staining intensity. Disease Free Survival (DFS) calculated from the date of randomization up to and including the date of documented relapse as confirmed by the CT, death or start of new anti-tumor therapy.
