Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Progression Free Survival (PFS) Per Investigator Assessment4 weeks and thereafter every 6 weeks until disease progression or death up to 3.5 yearsPFS was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of the event, defined as the first radiologically documented disease progression per RECIST v. 1.1 or death due to any cause. If a patient has not progressed or died at the analysis cut-off date or when the patient receives further anti-neoplastic therapy, PFS was censored on the date of the last adequate tumor assessment before the earlier of the cut-off date or start of the further anti-neoplastic therapy date.

CR is defined as disappearance of all target lesions and any pathological lymph nodes must have a short axis of \<10 mm and the disappearance of all non-target lesions). PR is defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as a reference, the Baseline sum of the diameters or the persistence of 1 or more non-target lesions or lymph nodes identified as a site of disease at Baseline with a short axis of ≥10mm).
Time to Response (TTR) as Per Local Radiological Assessment4 weeks and thereafter every 6 weeks until disease progression or death up to 3.5 yearsTTR is the time from date of randomization until first documented response (CR or PR, which has to be confirmed subsequently) according to RECIST v1.1. CR is defined as disappearance of all target lesions and any pathological lymph nodes must have a short axis of \<10 mm and the disappearance of all non-target lesions).

SD is defined as neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR or CR nor an increase in lesions which would qualify for PD. PD is defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum of diameter of all target lesions recorded at or after baseline. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm\^2.
