  • * This backward-selected multivariable Cox regression model included age, sex, initial disease status, treatment, performance status by Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group, CA 19-9, best response, variables at T1 (skewness and compacity for PFS; SUVpeak and compacity for OS), T2 (SUVmax, CoV, entropy GLCM, and dissimilarity for PFS; SUVmax, TLG, CoV, entropy GLCM, and dissimilarity for OS), and, for PFS, percentage changes (SUVpeak, TLG, CoV, and entropy GLCM).

  • aHR = adjusted hazard ratio.
