ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryOverall Survival (OS)up to 3 yearsOS is defined as the time between the date of randomization and the date of death due to any cause. A participant who has not died will be censored at the last known alive date.
SecondaryKaplan-Meier Plot of Progression Free SurvivalFrom randomization to the date of the first documented tumor progression or death due to any cause (up to approximately 6 years)
PFS was defined as the time from randomization to the date of the first documented tumor progression or death due to any cause. Participants who did not have disease progression or who did not die were censored at the date of last tumor assessment. Participants who did not have any on study tumor assessment and did not have tumor progression or die were censored at the randomization date. Participants who started any subsequent anti-cancer therapy without a prior reported progression were censored at the last tumor assessment prior to initiation of the subsequent anti-cancer therapy. Participants who had surgical resection post start of study treatment were censored at the last tumor assessment date prior to initiation of surgical resection. PFS was determined by investigator reported response based on the Radiologic Assessment in Neuro-Oncology criteria.
SecondaryOverall Survival Rate at 24 MonthsAt 24 Months
The overall survival (OS) rate of (nivolumab + radiation therapy) and (temozolomide + radiation therapy) estimated as Kaplan-Meier probability of survival at 24 months. OS was defined as the time between the date of randomization and the date of death due to any cause. A participant who has not died was censored at the last known alive date.
SecondaryOverall Survival in Tumor Mutational Burden (TMB) High PopulationFrom randomization to the date of death due to any cause (up to approximately 6 years)
OS in all randomized participants that are tumor mutational burden high. OS was defined as the time between the date of randomization and the date of death due to any cause. A participant who has not died was censored at the last known alive date.
SecondaryProgression Free Survival in Tumor Mutational Burden (TMB) High PopulationFrom randomization to the date of the first documented tumor progression or death due to any cause (up to approximately 6 years)
PFS in all randomized participants that are tumor mutational burden high. PFS was defined as the time from randomization to the date of the first documented tumor progression or death due to any cause.
