Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Number of Participants With Pre-specified Treatment-related Adverse Events

  The physician determines pre-specified treatment-related toxicities and grades them by using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTC Version 5). 1 - Mild: 2 - Moderate: 3 - Severe: 4 - Life-threatening: 5 - Death. Th evaluation is realized during the first three cycles.

  At the end of cycle 1 to 3 (each cycle is 14 days)

Secondary Outcomes (8)

• Progression-free Survival (PFS)

  From baseline of patient until the first observed disease progression

• Number of Patients With Disease Control

  Up to 6 months, from baseline of patient to the point where the values are the lowest (nadir).

• Number of Participants With Objective Response

  Up to 6 months, from baseline of patient to the point where the values are the lowest (nadir).

• Overall Survival (OS)

  From baseline to date of patient death

• The Median of Regression of Tumor Size

  Up to 6 months, from baseline of patient to the point where the values are the lowest (nadir).
