2 FIGURE 1 Prevalence of clinically significant changes in 6MW (postrechemotherapy) after two cycles. The line indicating the cutoff for a clinically significant decline (−54 m) is shown. The change in 6MW of individual patients with freedom from progression (○) and progressive disease (▪) is shown. The rate of disease progression was not statistically different between those who improved/unchanged versus those who declined, p = 0.48.
