MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Cohort 1: • CNS ORR, defined as a CR or PR, and determined locally by the investigator through the use of RANO-BM criteria. Cohort 5 • OS defined as the time from treatment initiation to death from any cause. Patients without documented death at the time of the final analysis will be censored at the date of the last follow-up. Safety o Patient safety and AEs will be evaluated using the National Cancer Institute (NCI)-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v.5.0. All AEs and serious adverse events (SAEs) will be assessed to determine the safety and tolerability of the treatment. Cohort 2,3 and 4: Efficacy of PFS, defined as the period of time from treatment initiation to the first occurrence of disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first during at least first 12 months.
