MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs)Cycle 1 (Up To 28 Days)A DLT was an Adverse Event(AE) observed during the first 28 day cycle that is determined by the investigator to be at least possibly related to LY3039478 according to CTCAE v 4.0 and fulfills any of the following criteria: CTCAE Grade 3 nonhematological toxicity with a few exceptions, any other significant toxicity deemed to be dose limiting (eg, any toxicity that is possibly related to the study medication that requires the withdrawal of the patient from the study during Cycle 1).

Number of Participants Who Achieve Complete Remission (CR) or CR With Incomplete Blood Count Recovery (CRi): Overall Remission Rate (ORR)Baseline to Objective Disease Progression (Up To 2 Months)ORR is defined as the number of participants who achieved a best overall response of either complete remission (CR) or incomplete remission (CRi). The ORR (CR and CRi) is the sum of patients achieving a CR or a CRi divided by the total number of patients randomized in that arm. CR is defined as the number of participants who achieved a best overall response of complete remission (CR), out of the total number of participants randomized in that arm.
