Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryProgression-Free Survival (PFS)
Treatment period consisted of 4-week cycles with radiologic tumor assessment every 12 weeks from date of randomization until date of first documented PD or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 34 months.
The duration of Progression-Free Survival (PFS) using progression events as determined by Independent Review Committee (IRC) per mRECIST, or death due to any cause. The analysis was conducted after at least 315 subjects were randomized and at least 138 events were observed.
SecondaryOverall Survival (OS) With XL184 Compared With Placebo
The pre-specified interim analysis of Overall Survival (OS) was assessed at 44% of required events. Includes data up to 15June2011. As of this date, the number of deaths required to conduct the primary analysis had not been reached.
Duration of Overall Survival (OS) from the time of randomization to death due to any cause. A Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed to estimate the median.
SecondaryObjective Response Rate (ORR)Assessed at the same time as primary analysis of Progression Free Survival (PFS) data. Assessed at baseline and every 12 weeks until Progressive Disease (PD) up to 34 months.
The proportion of subjects with a best overall response (BOR) of confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as determined by the Independent Review Committee (IRC.) Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumor Criteria (mRECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI or CT: Complete Response (CR) disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR) ≥ 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Progressive Disease (PD) ≥ 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions. Overall Response Rate: ORR=CR +PR
SecondaryDuration of Objective Response (OR): Independent Radiology Committee (IRC) Determined
From time of first documentation of Objective Response (OR), confirmed at a later visit ≥28 days later as Progressive Disease (PD) as defined by mRECIST or death due to any cause, assessed up to 34 months.
For those subjects with Independent Radiology Committee (IRC) determined Objective Response Rate (ORR), the amount of time from documentation of Objective Response (OR) until Progressive Disease (PD) by mRECIST or death due to any cause.
SecondaryBiochemical Response Calcitonin (CTN) %
Serum tumor markers CTN evaluated from blood samples collected at screening and every 12 weeks (±5 days from randomization) until date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed for up to 34 months.
For each on-treatment tumor marker assessment from each subject, the biochemical response of CTN was determined based on percent increase or decrease from baseline. Best biochemical response over course of treatment was determined from evaluation of subject's time point response data. Biochemical response criteria: Complete Response (CR) - decrease in tumor marker into normal range from baseline value; Partial Response (PR) - decrease of \>50% from baseline value when baseline value is above normal range; Stable Disease (SD) - no more than a 50% increase and no more than a 50% decrease from baseline value above normal range; Progressive Disease (PD) - increase of \>50% from baseline value when baseline value is above normal range / or increase from low or normal range at baseline to above normal range; Not Evaluable (NE) - missing baseline value / or baseline value is not elevated and response is not PD / or response can not be determined due to change in assay format.
SecondaryBiochemical Response Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA) %
Serum tumor markers CEA evaluated from blood samples collected at screening and every 12 weeks (± 5 days from randomization) until date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed for up to 34 months.
For each on-treatment tumor marker assessment from each subject, the biochemical response of CEA was determined based on percent increase or decrease from baseline. Best biochemical response over the course of treatment was determined from evaluation of each subject's time point response data. Biochemical response: Complete Response (CR)- Decrease in tumor marker into normal range from baseline value; Partial Response (PR)- Decrease of \>50% from baseline value when baseline value is above normal range; Stable Disease (SD)- No more than a 50% increase and no more than a 50% decrease from baseline value above normal range; Progressive Disease (PD)- Increase of \>50% from baseline value when baseline value is above normal range / or increase from low or normal range at baseline to above normal range; Not Evaluable (NE)- Missing baseline value / or baseline value is not elevated and response is not Progressive Disease (PD) / or response can not be determined due to change in assay format.

SECONDARYObjective Response Rate (ORR)Assessed at the same time as primary analysis of Progression Free Survival (PFS) data. Assessed at baseline and every 12 weeks until Progressive Disease (PD) up to 34 months.
The primary analysis Objective Response Rate (ORR) was performed among subset of Intent To Treat (ITT) subjects with measurable disease at baseline (N = 208 cabozantinib, N = 104 placebo) based upon response determined by Independent Radiology Committee (IRC.) Subjects without post-baseline adequate tumor assessments - counted as nonresponders.

The primary analysis of Objective Response Rate (ORR) was performed among the subset of Intent To Treat (ITT) subjects with measurable disease at baseline and was based upon response as determined by the Independent Review Committee (IRC.)
