Interval 7.2 to 16.0

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: every 8 weeks until disease progression, estimated 18 months

The number of patients with complete or partial responses measured from the time of initial response to documented tumor progression. Radiologic response was defined using the Macdonald criteria. The Macdonald criteria divides response into 4 types of response based on imaging (MRI) and clinical features, as follows: 1) complete response (CR); 2) partial response (PR); 3) stable disease (SD); and 4) progression (PD). Criteria: CR: disappearance of all enhancing disease (measurable and non-measurable) sustained for at least 4 weeks, no new lesions. No corticosteroids, clinically stable or improved. PR: \>=50% decrease of all measurable enhancing lesions, sustained for at least 4 weeks, no new lesions. Stable or reduced corticosteroids, clinically stable or improved. SD: does not qualify for complete response, partial response or progression. Clinically stable. PD: \>= 25% increase in enhancing lesions, any new lesions. Clinical deterioration.
