SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Up to 24 months

PFS defined as the interval from study entry to the first documented evidence of disease progression by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 as at least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter (SLD) of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum SLD recorded since the treatment started and minimum 5 mm increase over the nadir, or the appearance of one or more new lesions. Patients who remain progression-free at the time of analysis will be censored at their last date of follow-up.

Progression-free Survival (PFS)
6.53 months
Interval 2.33 to 12.2
9.4 months
Interval 3.56 to 19.7

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 24 weeks

Population: Two participants in the 125mg group did not have an evaluable disease assessment 24 weeks

Defined as the proportion of patients whose best overall response, according to RECIST, is either complete response (CR), a partial response (PR) or stable disease (SD) at 24 weeks. Only those patients who have measurable disease present at baseline, have received at least one cycle of therapy, and have had their disease re-evaluated will be considered evaluable for response.
