  1. Univariable analysis and unadjusted and adjusted Odds Ratio for treatment use by deprivation group (from multivariable logistic regression models, adjusting for age group, gender, diagnosis period and tumour type).
  2. OR: Odds Ratio; 'Depr.': Deprivation; 'cont'; Continuous (variable); CI: Confidence Interval; 'Cur': Curative.
  3. p*: From linear regression models, entering deprivation group as a continuous variable, as a test for trend.
  4. p**: The full model outputs are presented in Table S2 in Additional file 2
