Re: Trastuzumab Emtansine (T-DM1) Significantly Improves Breast Cancer Survival

From the article:

"The EMILIA study has met both of its co-primary endpoints: progression-free survival and significant improvements in overall survival, the company added."

Does anyone know the details about what "significant" means for the results of this trial?
