Kaplan–Meier curves for ECG patients who had metachronous cancer after initial ESD treatment. (A) Overall disease-free curves in relation to the mutator/suppressor subtypes in patients with EGCs. The 3-year disease-free rate in the group of mutator/MSI-type tumours was 33%, but it was 93 and 94% in the suppressor/p53-type and unclassified type tumours, respectively (P<0.01). (B) Overall disease-free curves in relation to mucin subtypes in patients with EGCs. There was no statistical difference in the 3-year disease-free rate among mucin phenotypes (P=0.84).
