ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryBest Response - mITT (Modified Intent-to-treat) Population
Radiological assessments were performed every 8 weeks (2 cycles) from start of the treatment. After completion of 6 cycles of treatment at the highest tolerated dose level, assessments were performed every 12 weeks for up to 34 months.
Best Response (Response Rate) of a subject was defined as the proportion of patients with confirmed Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) as their best response observed (by independent central assessment) during trial period assessed according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST version 1.0) criteria. Confirmed CR was defined as disappearance of tumor and PR was defined as a decrease of at least 30% in the sum of tumor lesion sizes.
PrimaryTumor Response - ITT (Intent to Treat) Population
Radiological assessments were performed every 8 weeks (2 cycles) from start of the treatment. After completion of 6 cycles of treatment at the highest tolerated dose level, assessments were performed every 12 weeks for up to 34 months.
Tumor Response of a subject was defined as the best tumor response observed (by independent central assessment) during trial period assessed according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST version 1.0) criteria. Confirmed Complete Response (CR) was defined as disappearance of tumor, Partial Response (PR) was defined as a decrease of at least 30% in the sum of target lesions, Stable Disease (SD) was defined as steady state of disease, and Progressive Disease (PD) was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of measured lesions or appearance of new lesions.
SecondaryPharmacokinetics (PK) Analysis - Area Under the Drug Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to 10 Hours Postdose (AUC(0-10),ss)
Blood samples were collected at screening (blank) and on day 28 of the first cycle completed at each dose level. Samples were drawn at the following time points in relation to morning dose of sorafenib: pre-dose, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 hours post-dose.
AUC(0-10),ss was defined as an area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from time zero to 10 hours post-dose. Parameter was calculated for sorafenib and M2, an active metabolite of sorafenib.
SecondaryPharmacokinetics (PK) Analysis - Area Under the Drug Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to 12 Hours Postdose (AUC(0-12),ss)
Blood samples were collected at screening (blank) and on day 28 of the first cycle completed at each dose level. Samples were drawn at the following time points in relation to morning dose of sorafenib: pre-dose, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 hours post-dose.
AUC(0-12),ss was defined as an area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from time zero to 12 hours post-dose. Parameter was calculated for sorafenib and M2, an active metabolite of sorafenib.
SecondaryPharmacokinetics (PK) Analysis - Maximum Observed Concentration in Plasma (Cmax)
Blood samples were collected at screening (blank) and on day 28 of the first cycle completed at each dose level. Samples were drawn at the following time points in relation to morning dose of sorafenib: pre-dose, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 hours post-dose.
Cmax was defined as a maximum plasma concentration at steady-state. Parameter was calculated for sorafenib and M2, an active metabolite of sorafenib.
SecondaryPharmacokinetics (PK) Analysis - Time to Maximum Concentration (Tmax)
Blood samples were collected at screening (blank) and on day 28 of the first cycle completed at each dose level. Samples were drawn at the following time points in relation to morning dose of sorafenib: pre-dose, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 hours post-dose.
Tmax was defined as a time to maximum concentration at steady-state. Parameter was calculated for sorafenib and M2, an active metabolite of sorafenib.
SecondaryProgression-free Survival (PFS)
Radiological assessments were performed every 8 weeks (2 cycles) from start of the treatment. After completion of 6 cycles of treatment at the highest tolerated dose level, assessments were performed every 12 weeks for up to 34 months.
Progression-free survival (PFS) was defined as the time from start of study medication to the first documented disease progression per RECIST (by independent radiological assessment) or clinical progression as per investigator assessment or death due to any cause whichever occurred first. For patients who had not recurred or died at the time of analysis, PFS was censored at their last date of evaluable scan.
SecondaryTime to Progression (TTP)
Radiological assessments were performed every 8 weeks (2 cycles) from start of the treatment. After completion of 6 cycles of treatment at the highest tolerated dose level, assessments were performed every 12 weeks for up to 34 months.
Time to progression (TTP) was defined as the time from start of study medication to the first documented disease progression per RECIST (by independent radiological assessment) or clinical progression as per investigator assessment whichever occurred first. For patients who had not progressed at the time of analysis or died before progression, TTP was censored at their last date of evaluable scan.
OtherTumor Response - mITT Population
Radiological assessments were performed every 8 weeks (2 cycles) from start of the treatment. After completion of 6 cycles of treatment at the highest tolerated dose level, assessments were performed every 12 weeks for up to 34 months.
Tumor Response of a subject was defined as the best tumor response observed (by independent central assessment) during trial period assessed according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST version 1.0) criteria. Confirmed Complete Response (CR) was defined as disappearance of tumor, Partial Response (PR) was defined as a decrease of at least 30% in the sum of target lesions, Stable Disease (SD) was defined as steady state of disease, and Progressive Disease (PD) was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of measured lesions or appearance of new lesions.
OtherDisease Control - mITT Population
Radiological assessments were performed every 8 weeks (2 cycles) from start of the treatment. After completion of 6 cycles of treatment at the highest tolerated dose level, assessments were performed every 12 weeks for up to 34 months.
Disease Control (DC) of a subject was defined as the proportion of patients with confirmed Complete Response (CR), Partial Response (PR) or Stable Disease (SD) as their best response observed (by independent central assessment) during trial period assessed according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST version 1.0) criteria. Confirmed CR was defined as disappearance of tumor, PR was defined as a decrease of at least 30% in the sum of tumor lesion sizes, and SD was defined as steady state of disease.
