  2. *The variables were entered into the Fine-Gray regression model and included age, gender, ECOG PS (0–1 vs. 2–3), EGFR (mutated vs. wild), KRAS (mutated vs. wild), tumor histology (adenocarcinoma vs. nonadenocarcinoma), and tumor stage (localized stage vs. distant metastasis). All variables were shown in the table
