However, we also tried analyzing a multivariate regression equation model using the dichotomized NCCN‐IPIs (divided into two groups of low/low‐intermediate and high‐intermediate/high‐risk groups) and concluded that TLG 0 , TLG 1 , and the dichotomized NCCN‐IPIs showed predictive value independently (HR = 5.839, 95% CI 1.20‐28.44, P ‐value = 0.029; HR = 3.082, 95% CI 1.15‐8.25, P = 0.025; HR = 3.00, 95% CI 1.08‐8.33, P = 0.035, respectively) (Table S2 ), whereas that of %ΔSUV max in this model showed a trend for significance as an independent predictor of PFS (HR = 3.80, 95% CI 0.98‐14.77, P ‐value = 0.054).
