3 Figure 2 Overall survival of patients treated with definitive chemoradiation (CRT) compared with that of patients treated with definitive radiation therapy (RT) alone. Unmatched patient population (A) and propensity score–matched elderly patients (B). All curves represent actual survival as estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method.

4 Figure 3 Overall survival of patients treated with either single-agent (sCRT) or multiagent chemoradiation (mCRT) compared with that of patients treated with radiation therapy alone (RT). (A) Comparison of sCRT versus definitive RT alone. (B) mCRT versus definitive RT alone. (C) Comparison of mCRT versus sCRT. All analysis was performed using the propensity score–matched patients, and all curves represent actual survival as estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method.

5 Figure 4 Overall survival of patients treated with definitive concurrent chemoradiation (Con CRT) and definitive sequential chemoradiation (Seq CRT). Unmatched patient population (A) versus propensity score–matched elderly patients (B). All curves represent actual survival as estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method.
