Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Overall Survival

    Following progression survival data was collected until documentation of death, withdrawal of consent, loss to follow-up or the final data cut-off, whichever occurred first.

    From date of randomization until death, withdrawal of consent or the end of the study. The end of the study was defined as the date all AZD6244 patients had been followed for a minimum of 12 months, or the date of final analysis, whichever was later

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Progression Free Survival

    From randomization until evidence of RECIST-defined objective disease progression or data cut off, for a minimum of 12 months since start of treatment

  • Objective Response Rate

    From randomization until evidence of RECIST-defined objective disease progression or data cut off, for a minimum of 12 months since start of treatment

  • Change in Target Lesion Tumour Size at Week 12
