Time to Second Progression or Death (PFS2)
PFS2 was defined as the time from randomization to the time of the second progression or death. The date of second progression was recorded by the investigator and defined according to local standard clinical practice, and could have involved any of the following: objective radiological, symptomatic progression, or death. RECIST assessments were not collected for assessment of PFS2. PFS2 was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier technique.
Time frame: Following confirmed progression, patients were assessed every ~12 weeks until second disease progression. Assessed until 22 Mar 2018 DCO; up to a maximum of approximately 4 years.
Population: FAS included all randomized patients, analyzed on an ITT basis.
