(A) PFS of the whole cohort, (B) OS of the whole cohort, (C) PFS of patients who received PTR and those who did not in the original cohort, (D) OS of patients who received PTR and those who did not in the original cohort, (E) PFS of patients who received PTR and those who did not in the matched cohort, (F) OS of patients who received PTR and those who did not in the matched cohort. PTR: primary tumor resection, PSM: propensity score matching, PFS: progression free survival, OS: overall survival
