Randomization was stratified according to geographic region and disease stage (high-risk stage II or stage III N1 or stage III N2). The primary analysis population consisted of patients with Stage III disease.

Reporting Groups

	Description
FOLFOX4	Weeks 1-24: Oxaliplatin was administered as an 85 mg/m^2 intravenous infusion over 2 hours concomitantly with leucovorin as a 200 mg/m^2 infusion over 2 hours, followed by 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), given as a 400 mg/m^2 bolus injection, and then as a 600 mg/m^2 continuous infusion over 22 hours. Leucovorin 200 mg/m^2 (alone), followed by 5-FU 400 mg/m^2 bolus injection, and 5-FU 600 mg/m^2 continuous infusion were repeated on day 2. Cycle length was 2 weeks and cycles were repeated every second week for a total of 12 cycles (24 weeks). Weeks 25-48: Observation only.
FOLFOX4 + Bv	Weeks 1-24: Bevacizumab 5 mg/kg was administered as an intravenous infusion over 30 - 90 minutes followed by oxaliplatin, administered as an 85 mg/m^2 intravenous infusion over 2 hours (on day 1 only) concomitantly with leucovorin, as a 200 mg/m^2 infusion over 2 hours, followed by 5-FU, given as a 400 mg/m^2 bolus injection, and then as a 600 mg/m^2 continuous infusion over 22 hours. Leucovorin 200 mg/m^2 (alone), followed by 5-FU 400 mg/m^2 bolus injection, and 5-FU 600 mg/m^2 continuous infusion are repeated on day 2. Cycle length is 2 weeks and cycles were repeated every second week for a total of 12 cycles (24 weeks). Weeks 25-48: Bevacizumab 7.5 mg/kg was administered as an intravenous infusion over 30 minutes. Cycle length was 3 weeks. Cycles were repeated every 3 weeks for a total of 8 cycles (24 weeks).
XELOX+Bv	Weeks 1-24: Bevacizumab 7.5 mg/kg was administered as an intravenous infusion over 30 - 90 minutes followed by oxaliplatin administered as a 130 mg/m^2 intravenous infusion over 2 hours (day 1 every 3 weeks) in combination with capecitabine, which was administered orally at a dose of 1000 mg/m^2 twice daily (equivalent to a total daily dose of 2000 mg/m^2), with first dose the evening of day 1 and last dose the morning of day 15, given as intermittent treatment (3-week cycles consisting of 2 weeks of treatment followed by 1 week without treatment), for a total of 8 cycles (24 weeks). Weeks 25-48: Bevacizumab 7.5 mg/kg was administered as an intravenous infusion over 30 minutes. Cycle length was 3 weeks. Cycles were repeated every 3 weeks for a total of 8 cycles (24 weeks).
