PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 years

Population: The analysis is comprise of evaluable patients who had measurable disease and received at least one cycle of therapy and had disease evaluated.

Assessed using RECIST criteria. Determined using a Simon's two-stage minimax design with a 5% significance level and 80% power.
