Three-year cumulative incidence of cancer deaths for all patients (A), those with CPFE and clinical stage I and II/III disease (B) and those with %VC < 100% or ≥ 100% (C):
(A) 20.1% (14.7% - 27.2%), (B) 16.0% (10.4% - 24.3%) vs. 30.9% (19.8% - 46.2%); P

Three-year cumulative incidence of non-cancer death for all patients (A): 27.6% (21.5%
