Registered outcomes5

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

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Patients With Adverse Events6 weeks.Adverse event monitoring should be continued for at least 30 days (or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer) following the last dose of study treatment
SecondaryBlood Everolimus Levels28 daysmTOR signaling in blood
SecondaryBlood Total VEGF Levels (Not Only VEGF-D)28 days
SecondarymTOR Brain Tissue-S6 Phosphate by Western Blot28 days
SecondaryHMGB1 Expression in Brain Tissue28 days
HMGB1 expression is measured through label-free quantification (LFQ). LFQ is a method in mass spectroscopy that determines the relative amount of proteins in biological samples. The unit of measure is LFQ intensity; a higher LFQ intensity indicates greater HMGB1 expression.
