FIGURE 1 Patient disposition. * The patient who had a valid TS qRT-PCR assessment but no valid TS IHC assessment discontinued during the induction phase because of an adverse event. CR, complete response; IHC, immunohistochemistry; PR, partial response; qRT-PCR, quantitative reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction; SD, stable disease; TS, thymidylate synthase.

FIGURE 2 Wald χ2 statistic (A), and median PFS (B), plotted versus each nuclear thymidylate synthase H-score as cutpoint chosen to divide patients into low- and high-expression groups (n = 60). IHC, immunohistochemistry; PFS, progression-free survival.

FIGURE 3 Kaplan–Meier plots of PFS (A) and OS (B) in patients with low and high nuclear TS expression (H-score) (n = 60). High and low TS immunohistochemical expression in the nucleus: TS nucleus H-score less than 70 and more than or equal to 70, respectively. OS, overall survival, PFS, progression-free survival; TS, thymidylate synthase.
