Multivariate analysis showed female sex (hazard ratio [HR]: 7.360, 95% CI: 1.649–32.856, P = 0.009), tumor size ≥3 cm (HR: 23.697, 95% CI: 4.383–128.117, P < 0.001) and low AR mRNA expression (HR: 0.202, 95% CI: 0.048–0.841, P = 0.028) to be independent predictors of shorter RFS. The gene discussed is AR; the disease is neoplasm.
