Registered outcomes3

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

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Children Responding to TreatmentMonth 12
The objective response of study participants was categorized as complete response, partial response, or stable disease. Determination of tumor response or progression is based on the pre-study baseline scan performed closest to time of study entry. The overall response assessment takes into account response in both target and non-target lesion, and the appearance of new lesions. Complete response is defined as the disappearance of all target lesions and non-target lesions, and no new lesions. Partial response is defined as ≥ 65% decrease in the sum of the products of the three perpendicular diameters of all target lesions, and no development of new lesions. Stable disease is defined as neither sufficient decrease in the sum of the products of the three perpendicular diameters of all target lesions to qualify for partial response, nor sufficient increase in a single target lesion to qualify for progressive disease, as well as no new lesions.
SecondaryNumber of Participants Meeting Event Free Survival CriteriaMonth 12, Month 24Event free survival is the time to treatment failure from the time of study enrollment to tumor progression, tumor recurrence, death from any cause or occurrence of a second malignant neoplasm.
SecondaryNumber of Participants Meeting Overall Survival CriteriaMonth 12, Month 24Overall survival is measured as the time from study enrollment to death from any cause.
