In plain words
What these results mean for people, not percentages
573 people took part
Overall survivalprimarysurvival endpoint
  • Median 10.6 vs 7.8 months with Regorafenib compared with Placebo; about 2.8 months longer for half the group.
  • A median is a midpoint: half the people did better than this and half did worse, so it is not a prediction for any one person.
  • Put another way, the treated group had about 37 percent lower chance of the event at any given time (hazard ratio 0.63, likely range 0.5 to 0.79).
  • Overall survival counts deaths from any cause, so it is the most direct measure of whether a treatment helps people live longer.
  • These results apply to the people the trial enrolled: HCC progressing on sorafenib: regorafenib vs placebo. People in a different situation may not see the same effect.
