BCC: basal cell carcinoma; ECOG: Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group. BOLT data analysis was based on the 18-month update (i.e., 18 months of patient follow-up) [7]; ERIVANCE summary information was based on the 12-month update (i.e., 21 months of patient follow-up) [16]; postmatched BOLT results were weighted at the person level; therefore, the number of patients was not available; two patients had missing ECOG status at baseline; Systemic or topical.
