  1. For each standard prognostic index SPI (grade, node status, size and NPI) we compare their D-index with the D-index of the corresponding equal-weight hybrid prognostic model, defined by a hybrid prognostic index HPI, where HPI ~ SPI + MPI* or HPI ~ SPI + MPI** (see Materials and methods). 95% CI for the hybrid prognostic model D-index values are shown in brackets. MPI* denotes the index of the optimal 52-gene classifier. MPI** denotes the index of the 17-gene classifier. †For JRH-2 only 36 samples with NPI information were available.
