Association of type I IGF receptor expression with distant metastasis-free survival in breast cancer patients. The association between type I IGF receptor gene (IGF-IR) expression and time to relapse with distant metastasis was analysed. Kaplan and Meier survival curves are shown for all patients (a), patients with oestrogen receptor-positive tumours (b), patients with oestrogen receptor-positive tumours and involved lymph nodes (c), and patients with oestrogen receptor-positive, grade III tumours (d). The differences between the curves was assessed by log rank test and the curves were considered to be significantly different if p < 0.05
