- Limitations and caveats
All 131 patients in Part 2 discontinued from the study; the most frequent reasons were (i) study terminated at the discretion of the sponsor \[86 patients (65.6%)\] and (ii) death \[36 patients (27.5%)\]. The discontinuations prior to planned sample collections, as outlined in the protocol schedule of events, precluded the ability to carry out all planned analyses, including but not limited to PK analyses. Dalantercept PK in patients with advanced cancer has been reported previously.

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Part 1: Number of Participants With Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability. | Assessed from time of first dose to approximately 30 days after last dose. Participants were allowed to remain on treatment until documented disease progression. The time frame for Part 1 of the study was up to 21.6 months | Outcome measure is intended for Part 1 of the study in order to determine recommended dose level for Part 2. |
| Primary | Part 2: Progression Free Survival (PFS). | Progression free survival is defined as the time from the date of the randomization to the first documented disease progression (according to RECIST v1.1) or death due to any cause. The Time frame for Part 2 was up to 29.0 months | PFS was defined as the time from randomization to the date of first documentation of disease progression based on RECIST (version 1.1) or to death due to any cause, whichever occurred first. Disease progression is defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. RECIST 1.1 defines disease progression as an increase of at least a 20% in the sum of 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. The appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progression) |
| Secondary | Part 1: Progression Free Survival (PFS). | The time frame for Part 1 of the study was up to 21.6 months | PFS was defined as the time from randomization to the date of first documentation of disease progression based on RECIST (version 1.1) or to death due to any cause, whichever occurred first. Disease progression is defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. |
| Secondary | Part 1: Overall Survival (OS). [The Time Frame for Part 1 of the Study Was up to 21.6 Months] | Up to 21.6 months | Percentage of Part 1 subjects alive at the end of Part 1 of the study. \[The time frame for Part 1 of the study was up to 21.6 months\] |
| Secondary | Part 1: Objective Response Rate (ORR) | Up to 21.6 months from randomization in Part 1 of the study | Objective response rate (ORR) is defined as the number and percentage of patients who have a partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) to therapy. A CR is defined as the disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to \<10 mm. A PR is defined as a decrease of at least a 30% in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. As no subjects in Part 1 experienced a CR, the ORR in Part 1 is defined by the PR |
| Secondary | Part 1: Disease Control Rate (DCR) | From randomization up to 21.6 months in Part 1 of the study | The number and percentage of patients whose disease shrinks or remains stable. DCR is the sum of the complete, partial and stable disease rates. |
| Secondary | Part 1: Duration of Response (DoR) | From randomization up to 21.6 months in Part 1 of the study. | Response duration is measured from the time measurement criteria are first met for objective response until the first date that recurrent or progressive disease is objectively documented (taking as reference for progressive disease the smallest measurements recorded on study. |
| Secondary | Part 2: Progression Free Survival (PFS) for the Subset of Participants With 2 or More Lines of Prior Systemic Chemotherapy | Progression free survival is defined as the time from the date of the randomization to the first documented disease progression (according to RECIST v1.1) or death due to any cause. The Time frame for Part 2 was up to 29.0 months | Progression Free Survival (PFS) for the subset of participants with 2 or more lines of prior systemic chemotherapy. PFS was based upon RECIST 1.1 assessment, as described in outcome measure 2. |
| Secondary | Part 2: Overall Survival. | Patients to be contacted every 3 months for up to 12 months (anticipated) for survival follow-up, as well as tumor assessment scans if progression of disease has not previously been documented. The time frame for Part 2 was up to 29.0 months | The number of months from the date of randomization to the date of death. |
| Secondary | Part 2: Objective Response Rate. | Assessed at 30 days after last dose of study drug; up to 29.0 months for Part 2 of the study | Objective response rate (ORR) is defined as the number and percentage of patients who have a partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) to therapy. A CR is defined as the disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to \<10 mm. A PR is defined as a decrease of at least a 30% in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. |
