  1. Model 1 integrates ctDNA detection at baseline while model 2 does not and includes ctDNA variation at 12 weeks. 12w: 12 weeks; CI: Confidence Interval; HR: Hazard Ratio. Cox proportional hazards modeling, encompassing univariate and multivariate analyzes, evaluated the prognostic significance of different predictors. Two-sided statistical tests were used. P values ≤ 0.05 are indicated as bold formatting in the table. No formal adjustment for multiplicity was performed.
