Markov model of outcomes of CPM and no CPM. Women in each Markov state (no CBC, CBC stages I, II, III, and IV) can transition to the “long-term survivor” health state after 10 years (cycles) without a breast cancer event or death and to the terminal states “death from other causes” and “death from breast cancer” during each cycle. CBC states outlined in red are health states with transition probabilities dependent on stage of CBC.
