Registered outcomes4

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

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryResponse Rate (RR)Every 8 weeks
Response rate (complete response \[CR\]+ partial response \[PR\]) was evaluated using the revised Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) guideline (version 1.1). * Complete response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to \< 10 mm. * Partial response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. * Progressive disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. * Stable disease (SD): Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum diameters while on study.
PrimaryClinical Benefit Rate (CBR)After completing at least 1 cycle (8 weeks) of treatmentSum of complete response (CR), partial response (PR) and stable disease (SD) in patients eligible for efficacy analysis.
SecondaryProgression-free SurvivalEvery 8 weeks
Defined as the duration of time from start of treatment to time of progression or death, whichever occurs first. Progression was evaluated using the revised Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) guideline (version 1.1). Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm.

Outcomes4

Each outcome the trial posted results for, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

TypeOutcomeTime framePopulationUnitsMeasured as
PRIMARYResponse Rate (RR)Every 8 weeks
Two patients were not analyzed because only those patients who have measurable disease present at baseline, have received at least one cycle of therapy, and have had their disease re-evaluated were considered evaluable for response.
ParticipantsCOUNT_OF_PARTICIPANTS
PRIMARYClinical Benefit Rate (CBR)After completing at least 1 cycle (8 weeks) of treatment
An alternative endpoint of clinical benefit rate was pre-specified in the event that the study failed to meet its overall response rate (ORR) endpoint either at the end of stage I accrual or at final analysis. However, this study met its endpoint. Please see primary outcome measure 1.
SECONDARYProgression-free SurvivalEvery 8 weeks
Two patients were not analyzed because only those patients who have measurable disease present at baseline, have received at least one cycle of therapy, and have had their disease re-evaluated were considered evaluable for response.
