MeasureTime frameDescription
Tumor Responsebaseline to measured progressive diseaseBest response recorded from the start of treatment until disease progression/recurrence using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria that defines when participants improve (respond), stay the same (stable), or worsen (progression) during treatment.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Duration of Responsetime of response to progressive diseaseFor responders, the minimum and maximum of the duration of complete response, duration of partial response, and duration of overall response were summarized, and the median of response duration and its 95% confidence interval were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier estimation.
Time to Progressive Diseasebaseline to measured progressive diseaseTime from study enrollment to first date of disease progression. Time to disease progression was censored at date of death if death was due to other cause. The minimum and maximum of this parameter were summarized, and the median time to progression and its 95% confidence interval were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier estimation.
Survival at 1 Yearbaseline to date of death from any cause, evaluate at 1 yearResults are reported as number of participants alive at one year.

Pre-assignment details

At Step 1, 6 participants each were assigned at Dose Level 1 (gemcitabine:1000 mg/ m2) and Dose Level 2 (gemcitabine:1250 mg/ m2) to determine the recommended dose for Step 2. At Step 2, an additional 56 participants received the recommended dose (Dose Level 2).
