Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Progression-free Survival (PFS)

    PFS was defined as the interval between the date of randomization and the earliest date of progressive disease (PD), as defined by the Independent Review Committee (IRC), or death due to any cause. The IRC defined PD per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST), Version 1. Per RECIST, PD is defined as a \>=20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum longest diameter recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of \>=1 new lesion.

    From randomization until the earliest date of disease progression or date of death from any cause, assessed up to approximately 39 months

Secondary Outcomes (17)

  • Overall Survival

    From randomization until date of death from any cause, assessed up to approximately 62 months

  • Overall Response Rate (ORR) as Assessed by Independent Review

    From randomization until date of radiographic progression or date of death from any cause, whichever comes first, assessed up to approximately 39 months

  • Time to Response

    From randomization until date of radiographic progression or date of death from any cause, whichever comes first, assessed up to approximately 39 months

  • Duration of Response (DOR)

    From the date of the first documented response (CR or PR) to the date of first documented progression or death due to any cause, assessed up to approximately 39 months

  • Number of Participants With Adverse Events

    From study treatment start date till 28 days safety follow-up, assessed up to approximately 152 months

  • +12 more secondary outcomes

Other Outcomes (1)

  • All Collected Deaths

    Pre-treatment deaths: Up to 21 days prior to treatment. On-treatment deaths: Up to 129 months. Post-treatment deaths: up to 152 months.

Limitations and Caveats

This is a legacy GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) study and the primary CSR was completed by GSK prior to the study sponsorship handover. The full investigators lists and other appendices were not transferred over during the change in sponsorship from GSK to Novartis and therefore, the team could not confirm or quality control the investigator sites list.
