Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Objective response rate (partial or complete response) evaluated by RECIST

    A 10% response rate precludes further study whereas a 25% response rate would indicate that further study is warranted.

    Up to 8 years

  • Frequency and extent of cytotoxic activity graded according to the NCI CTC Version 2.0

    Up to 8 years

  • Time to disease progression

    Will also be evaluated using the Kaplan-Meier estimator.

    From the first day of treatment until the date PD or death is first reported, assessed up to 8 years

  • Overall survival

    Will also be evaluated using the Kaplan-Meier estimator.

    From the time measurement criteria are met for CR/PR (whichever is first recorded) until the first date that PD is objectively documented, assessed up to 10 years
