Secondary outcomes

  1. Recurrence-free survival

    Time frame: From the date of axillary lymph node dissection until time of event up to 3 years

    Recurrence-free survival time is defined as the time from the date of axillary lymph node dissection until the date of the first occurrence of local/regional recurrence, distant recurrence and death from any cause

  2. Overall survival

    Time frame: From the date of axillary lymph node dissection until time of event up to 3 years
