MeasureTime frameDescription
Overall Survival (OS)From start of index treatment until date of death or censoring date, during study observation period maximum up to approximately 53 months (data was retrieved and observed during 2.5 years of this retrospective study)Overall survival (OS) was defined as the interval between index treatment and the date of death (any cause) as documented in the Limited Access Death Master File (LADMF), National Death Index (NDI) and the iKM EHR database. Participants who did not die within the study observation period were censored on the study end date or the last visit date available in the dataset, whichever occurred first. Kaplan-Meier method was used for analysis.

Kaplan-Meier method was used for analysis.
Real-World Progression-Free Survival (rwPFS)From initiation of index treatment to date of progression or death due to any cause or censoring date, during study observation period maximum up to approximately 53 months (data was retrieved and observed during 2.5 years of this retrospective study)The rwPFS was measured from the initiation of the index treatment to the date of progression (documented by provider as disease has progressed or worsening of disease) or date of death due to any cause, censoring participants who were still alive at the end of the study observation period and did not progress at the last visit date.
