Brief summary

This open label extension study will give an opportunity to the participants that have responded to the treatment with Pegylated-Interferon Alfa-2a (Pegasys) or Recombinant Interferon Alfa-2a (Roferon-A®) in prior clinical studies NO15753 (NCT00003542) for Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC), NO15764 (NCT number not available) and NO16006 (NCT02736721) for Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML), and NO16007 (NCT number not available) for Malignant Melanoma (MM).

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)Baseline up to approximately 3 yearsAn adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship to the study drug. An SAE was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; Initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; Life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); Persistent or significant disability or incapacity; and congenital anomaly.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants With Overall Tumor ResponseBaseline until disease progression, withdrawal or death, whichever occurred earlier (assessed every 6 months up to approximately 3 years)Tumor response was assessed every 6 months using hematological evaluation or any other appropriate diagnostic techniques, as per standard of care practice. The complete response (CR) and partial response (PR) status were recorded from case report form.

Participants by arm

ArmCount
Interferon Alfa-2A in Cancer Participants
Participants who responded to interferon alfa-2A (either pegylated interferon alfa-2A or recombinant interferon alfa 2A) treatment during the parent study continued to receive the same treatment in this study. Pegylated interferon alfa-2A was administered subcutaneously once weekly and recombinant interferon alfa 2A was administered subcutaneously once daily, until disease progression, withdrawal, or death whichever occurred first (up to approximately 3 years).
