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

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryBone Metastasis-free Survival (BMFS)
From randomization until the primary analysis data cut-off date of 31 August 2017; median (minimum, maximum) time on study was 67.2 (0.0, 85.9) and 67.0 (0.0, 86.6) months in each treatment group respectively.
BMFS time was defined as the time interval from the randomization date to the first occurrence of bone metastasis or death from any cause, whichever came first. Participants last known to be alive with no bone metastasis were censored at their last assessment date, or at the primary analysis data cut-off date, whichever was first. Participants who had first occurrence of bone metastasis before randomization were censored at their randomization date. Bone metastasis must have been confirmed by central imaging analysis or by biopsy, Evidence of disseminated tumor cells in bone marrow was not sufficient for determination of disease recurrence. Development of new primary malignancy in bone was not considered as bone metastasis. Since the median BMSF time could not be estimated due to low number of events, the percentage of participants with an event (i.e., bone metastasis or death) is reported.
SecondaryDisease-free Survival (DFS)
From randomization until the primary analysis data cut-off date of 31 August 2017; median (minimum, maximum) time on study was 67.2 (0.0, 85.9) and 67.0 (0.0, 86.6) months in each treatment group respectively.
DFS time was defined as the time interval from the randomization date to the date of first observation of disease recurrence or death from any cause, whichever was first. Participants last known to be alive with no disease recurrence were censored at their last assessment date, or at the primary analysis data cut-off date, whichever was first. Participants who had first disease recurrence before randomization were censored at their randomization date. Disease recurrence includes bone metastasis and extraosseous disease (EOD) confirmed by central imaging analysis or by biopsy/cytology. Development of non-breast cancer new primary malignancy was not considered as disease recurrence. Since the median DFS time could not be estimated due to low number of events, the percentage of participants with an event (i.e., disease recurrence or death) is reported.
SecondaryDisease-free Survival (DFS) in the Postmenopausal Subset
From randomization until the primary analysis data cut-off date of 31 August 2017; median (minimum, maximum) time on study was 67.2 (0.0, 85.9) and 67.0 (0.0, 86.6) months in each treatment group respectively.
DFS time was defined as the time interval from the randomization date to the date of first observation of disease recurrence or death from any cause, whichever was first. Participants last known to be alive with no disease recurrence were censored at their last assessment date, or at the primary analysis data cut-off date, whichever was first. Participants who had first disease recurrence before randomization were censored at their randomization date. Disease recurrence includes bone metastasis and extraosseous disease (EOD) confirmed by central imaging analysis or by biopsy/cytology. Development of non-breast cancer new primary malignancy was not considered as disease recurrence. Since the median DFS time in the postmenopausal subset could not be estimated due to low number of events, the percentage of participants with an event (i.e., disease recurrence or death) is reported.
SecondaryOverall SurvivalFrom randomization until the end of study; median (minimum, maximum) time on study was 72.7 (0, 92) and 72.3 (0, 92) months in each treatment group respectively.
Overall survival (OS) time was defined as the time interval from the randomization date to the date of death from any cause. Participants last known to be alive were censored at their last contact date. Since the median time to overall survival could not be estimated at the time of the final analysis due to low numbers of events, the percentage of participants with an event (i.e., death) is reported.
SecondaryDistant Recurrence-free Survival
From randomization until the primary analysis data cut-off date of 31 August 2017; median (minimum, maximum) time on study was 67.2 (0.0, 85.9) and 67.0 (0.0, 86.6) months in each treatment group respectively.
Distant recurrence-free survival (DRFS) was defined as the time interval from the randomization date to the date of first observation of distant disease recurrence or death from any cause, whichever came first. Participants last known to be alive, who had not experienced distant disease recurrence, were censored at their last assessment date, or at the primary analysis data cut-off date, whichever was first. Participants who had first distant recurrence before randomization were censored at their randomization date. Distant disease recurrence includes confirmed bone metastasis and extraosseous disease other than local-regional disease recurrence. Development of non-breast cancer new primary malignancy was not considered as distant disease recurrence. Since the median time to DRFS could not be estimated due to the low number of events, the percentage of participants with an event (i.e., distant recurrence or death) is reported.
