Prolonged treatment with TKIs followed by withdrawal and survival analysis. A, Schematic representation of experimental design. B, Representative images of bioluminescence signal in tibiae and lungs. C, Bioluminescence signal of tumors in bone quantified over time; single tumors are shown. D, Analysis of survival over time after TKI treatment based on bone tumors (photon flux values of 3 × 10 6 were considered as the end point). Absolute numbers are reported in the table. P value (one-way ANOVA with Tukey honestly significant difference post hoc test) and median OS are shown. E, Bioluminescence signal of tumors in lungs quantified over time; F, Estimation of survival over time after TKI treatment based on lung tumors. Absolute numbers are reported in the table. P value (one-way ANOVA with Tukey honestly significant difference post hoc test), median OS and 95% CI of ratio after the log-rank (Mantel–Cox) test are shown. Axi, axitinib; Cabo, cabozantinib; ; Lenv, lenvatinib; MBP, median bone progression; WD, withdrawal; Veh, vehicle.
