Limitations and caveats
Based on the interim OS data, the study was terminated due to the protocol-defined stopping boundary for futility being met. The study would not meet its primary endpoint of improved OS in the ITT population. There were no safety concerns.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
Primary
Overall Survival Following Treatment With Tivantinib (ARQ 197) Plus Erlotinib Compared to Placebo Plus Erlotinib in Previously Treated Participants With Locally Advanced or Metastatic, Non-Squamous, Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer
Date of randomization up to date of death, up to approximately 1 year 11 months postdoseThe overall survival (OS) was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of death from any cause.
Secondary
Progression-free Survival Following Treatment With Tivantinib (ARQ 197) Plus Erlotinib Compared to Placebo Plus Erlotinib in Previously Treated Participants With Locally Advanced or Metastatic, Non-Squamous, Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer
Date of randomization to disease progression or death (whichever comes first), up to 1 year 11 months postdose
Progression-free Survival (PFS) was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of the first objective documentation of disease progression or date of death from any cause (whichever comes first). As per the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) criteria, progression was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions.
Secondary
Overall Survival in the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Gene Wild-Type Subpopulation Following Treatment With Tivantinib (ARQ 197) Plus Erlotinib Compared to Placebo Plus Erlotinib in Previously Treated Participants With Non-Squamous NSCLC
Date of randomization up to date of death, up to approximately 1 year 11 months postdoseThe overall survival (OS) was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of death from any cause.
Secondary
Progression-free Survival in the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) Gene Wild-Type Subpopulation Following Treatment With Tivantinib (ARQ 197) Plus Erlotinib Compared to Placebo Plus Erlotinib in Previously Treated Participants Non-Squamous NSCLC
Date of randomization to disease progression or death (whichever comes first), up to 1 year 11 months postdose
Progression-free Survival (PFS) was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of the first objective documentation of disease progression or date of death from any cause (whichever comes first). As per the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) criteria, progression was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions.
Secondary
Best Overall Tumor Response Following Treatment With Tivantinib (ARQ 197) Plus Erlotinib Compared to Placebo Plus Erlotinib in Previously Treated Participants With Locally Advanced or Metastatic, Non-Squamous, Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer
From baseline up to disease progression or the development of unacceptable toxicity (whichever occurs first), up to 1 year 11 months postdose
The best overall response was defined as the best response (in the order of confirmed complete response \[CR\], confirmed partial response \[PR\], stable disease \[SD\], and progressive disease \[PD\]) among all overall responses recorded from the start of treatment until the participant withdrew from the study. If there was no tumor assessment after the first dose of study drug, the best overall response was classified as Inevaluable. Based on RECIST v1.1, CR was defined as a disappearance of all target lesions, PR was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, and SD was defined as neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease (PD; at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions.
Secondary
Duration of Response Following Treatment With Tivantinib (ARQ 197) Plus Erlotinib Compared to Placebo Plus Erlotinib in Previously Treated Participants With Locally Advanced or Metastatic, Non-Squamous, Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer
From the date of first objective response (CR or PR) or SD to date of progressive disease, up to 1 year 11 months postdose
Duration of response was defined for participants with confirmed CR or PR as the time from the date of the first documentation of objective response (CR or PR) to the date of the first documentation of progressive disease. Duration of SD was defined for participants whose best response was SD as the time from the randomization date to the date of the first documentation of progressive disease.
Secondary
Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events Reported in ≥5% of Participants Following Treatment With Tivantinib (ARQ 197) Plus Erlotinib Compared to Placebo Plus Erlotinib in Previously Treated Participants With Non-Squamous, Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer
Baseline up to 30 days after last dose, up to 1 year 11 months postdoseTreatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs) were defined as those AEs that occurred, having been absent before the study, or worsened in severity after the initiation of study treatment administration.

Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events Related to Tivantinib/Placebo Experienced by ≥5% of Participants Following Treatment With Tivantinib (ARQ 197) Plus Erlotinib Compared to Placebo Plus Erlotinib in Previously Treated Participants With Non-Squamous NSCLC
Baseline up to 30 days after last dose, up to 1 year 11 months postdoseTreatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs) were defined as those AEs that occurred, having been absent before the study, or worsened in severity after the initiation of study treatment administration.
