MeasureTime frameDescription
Part 1: Number of Participants from 1 to <18 years of Age Who Experience a Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT)Up to 42 daysNumber of participants experiencing toxicities that are possibly, probably, or definitely related to study therapy; that meet pre-defined severity criteria; and result in a change in the given dose.
Part 1: Number of Participants from 1 to <18 years of Age Who Experience One or More Adverse Events (AEs)Up to approximately 54 monthsAn AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a drug in a participant, whether or not considered drug related. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product and does not imply any judgment about causality. The number of participants in Part 1 who experience at least 1 AE will be presented.
Part 1: Number of Participants from 1 to <18 years of Age Who Discontinue Study Treatment Due to AEsUp to approximately 54 monthsAn AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a drug in a participant, whether or not considered drug related. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product and does not imply any judgment about causality. The number of participants in Part 1 who discontinue study treatment due to an AE will be presented.
Part 1: Number of Participants from 1 to <18 years of Age Who Receive Dose Modification Due to AEsUp to approximately 54 monthsAn AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a drug in a participant, whether or not considered drug related. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product and does not imply any judgment about causality. The number of participants in Part 1 who receive a dose modification due to an AE will be presented.
Part 1 and Part 2: Objective Response (OR) for Participants with B-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-ALL)Up to approximately 54 monthsOR for participants with B-ALL is defined as complete response (CR) or complete response with incomplete hematologic recovery (CRi) based on investigator's assessment per Ponte-di-Legno Consortium criteria. For Part 1 and Part 2, the OR for participants with B-ALL as assessed by investigator will be presented.
Part 1 and Part 2: OR for Participants with Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL)/Burkitt Lymphoma, Neuroblastoma, and Ewing SarcomaUp to approximately 54 monthsOR for participants with DLBCL/Burkitt lymphoma, neuroblastoma, and Ewing sarcoma is defined as complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) based on investigator's assessment per International Pediatric Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (IPNHL) Response Criteria for participants with DLBCL/Burkitt lymphoma, per International Neuroblastoma Response Criteria (INRC) for neuroblastoma, and per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 for Ewing sarcoma. For Part 1 and Part 2, the OR for participants with DLBCL/Burkitt lymphoma, neuroblastoma, and Ewing sarcoma as assessed by investigator will be presented.
