Table 3 Complete pathological response rate (%pCR) with univariable logistic regression analysis predicting for pCR and %6-year event-free survival (EFS) rate in the NeoALTTO trial with univariable Cox regression analysis predicting for EFS based on treatment arms and adaptive immune-signature status (high vs. low).
