Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Safety, measured by assessment of adverse events and laboratory abnormalities using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0 assessing grade timing, seriousness and relatedness. Outcome will be measured after cycle 1.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. Pharmacokinetic blood sampling looking at plasma figitumumab concentrations, anti-drug antibodies, serum IGF-1/2, insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 (IGFCP-3), insulin and growth hormone levels, measured Cycle 1 day 1, 2 and 8 and then prior to cycle 4. Antidrug antibodies measured cycle 1 day 1 and end of treatment. 2. Response to treatment measured by Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumours (RECIST) criteria or by nuclear imaging or histology, measured every 2 cycles
