Competing risk analysis of dropout from the waiting list depending on TNM stage, downstaging procedure, and response to neo-adjuvant therapy. (A) T1 patients and T2 patients with a complete response to neo-adjuvant treatments had similar dropout risks, which were lower than the risk observed for T2 patients with a partial response or no response. (B) T1 patients and T2 patients with a complete response had a dropout risk lower than that observed for patients subjected to downstaging, whose risk was in turn lower than that observed for T2 patients with a partial response or no response. (C) The dropout risk due to tumor progression is shown according to tumor stages and responses to treatments (p=0.001). (Cucchetti et al. [41] reprinted with permission).
