Registered outcomes6
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Progression Free Survival | Tumor assessment every 6 weeks for the treatment period. Subsequent assessments every 6 weeks for the initial 6 months, then every 9 weeks for 6 months, then every 12 weeks for 12 months and then every 6 months until 5 years from the start of study | Time from the date of randomization to the time of disease progression or death due to any cause, measured by RECIST criteria (Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors). |
| Secondary | Best Overall Response | Tumor assessment every 6 weeks for the treatment period. Subsequent assessments every 6 weeks for the initial 6 months, then every 9 weeks for 6 months, then every 12 weeks for 12 months and then every 6 months until 5 years from the start of study | The best overall response in an individual patient according to the RECIST criteria (Eisenhauer 2009 ) is the best response recorded from the start of the treatment until disease progression/recurrence. Objective response is defined as best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) |
| Secondary | Overall Survival (OS) | Tumor assessment every 6 weeks for the treatment period. Subsequent assessments every 6 weeks for the initial 6 months, then every 9 weeks for 6 months, then every 12 weeks for 12 months and then every 6 months until 5 years from the start of study | Time from the date of randomization to the date of death |
| Secondary | Time to Response | Tumor assessment every 6 weeks for the treatment period. Subsequent assessments every 6 weeks for the initial 6 months, then every 9 weeks for 6 months, then every 12 weeks for 12 months and then every 6 months until 5 years from the start of study | For patients with overall best response being CR or PR, time to response was measured as the time from randomization to the first time when the measurement criteria for CR or PR (whichever status is recorded first) were met |
| Secondary | Duration of Response | Tumor assessment every 6 weeks for the treatment period. Subsequent assessments every 6 weeks for the initial 6 months, then every 9 weeks for 6 months, then every 12 weeks for 12 months and then every 6 months until 5 years from the start of study | Duration of overall response was measured from the time that measurement criteria were first met for CR or PR (whichever status was recorded first) until the first date that PD (\[Progressive Disease\]) or death was documented |
| Secondary | Time to Progression (TTP) | Tumor assessment every 6 weeks for the treatment period. Subsequent assessments every 6 weeks for the initial 6 months, then every 9 weeks for 6 months, then every 12 weeks for 12 months and then every 6 months until 5 years from the start of study | Time from the date of randomization to the time of disease progression |
