Complete Response Rate
65 percentage of evaluable participants

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: At 3 and 6 months during treatment, then 6 months post-treatment.

Population: All patients evaluable for response.

The Percentage of Patients Who Experience an Objective Benefit From Treatment. Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI or CT: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), \>=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR.

Overall Response Rate
94 percentage of evaluable participants

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: at 3 and 6 months, then every 3 months post-treatment for 1 year and every 6 months thereafter until disease progression; projected 2 years.

The Length of Time, in Months, That Patients Were Alive From Their First Date of Protocol Treatment Until Worsening of Their Disease. Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0), as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions.
