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

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPercentage of Participants With Relapse-free Survival (RFS) EventsApproximately 4 years
Relapse-Free Survival (RFS) was defined as the time from randomization to disease recurrence or death from any cause. RFS events included loco-regional recurrence, distant metastases, new primary melanoma, and death without prior documented recurrence; such deaths were counted as events and not censored. Patients without an event at the analysis cut-off (30-Jun-2017) were censored at the date of the last radiological or non-radiological efficacy assessment. Patients lost to follow-up before recurrence or who initiated subsequent anti-cancer therapy prior to recurrence were censored at the last efficacy assessment before loss to follow-up or therapy initiation. Events after prolonged loss to follow-up were handled per the analysis plan. Malignancies other than new primary melanoma were not considered RFS events and, except for basal cell carcinoma, were reported as serious adverse events. Tumor tissue from any new primary cancer was collected for biomarker analyses.

SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Overall Survival (OS) EventsApproximately 10 yearsCensoring was performed using the date of last known contact for those who were alive at the time of analysis.
SecondaryOverall Survival (OS)Approximately 10 years
Overall Survival (OS) was defined as the interval from randomization to the date of death, irrespective of the cause of death. Censoring was performed using the date of last known contact for those who were alive at the time of analysis.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Distant Metastasis-free Survival (DMFS) EventsApproximately 4 years
Distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) was defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of distant metastasis or death, whichever occurred first, if death preceded documented recurrence. Patients who remained alive and free of distant metastasis were censored at the date of their last assessment.
SecondaryDistant Metastasis-free Survival (DMFS)Approximately 4 years
Distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) was defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of distant metastasis or death, whichever occurred first, if death preceded documented recurrence. Patients who remained alive and free of distant metastasis were censored at the date of their last assessment.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Freedom From Relapse (FFR) EventsApproximately 4 years
The first appearance of local/distant metastasis or mortality due to disease recurrence or toxicity were used as events. Censoring was performed using the date of last assessment for those who were alive without local/distant metastasis or new primary melanoma at the time of analysis. FFR was censored if patients died from causes other than melanoma or treatment-related toxicity at the date of death.
SecondaryFreedom From Relapse (FFR)Approximately 4 years
Freedom from relapse (FFR) was defined as the interval from randomization to local or distant recurrence with censoring of patients dying from causes other than melanoma or treatment -related toxicity at the date of death. The first appearance of local/distant metastasis or mortality due to disease recurrence or toxicity were used as events. Censoring was performed using the date of last assessment for those who were alive without local/distant metastasis or new primary melanoma at the time of analysis. FFR was censored if patients died from causes other than melanoma or treatment-related toxicity at the date of death.
