| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Kaplan-Meier Estimate of Progression-Free Survival by Independent Radiology/Clinical Review Committee Assessment in the Overall Population | up to 41.4 months | Progression-free survival was defined as the time from randomization to tumor progression or death from any cause. |
| Primary | Kaplan-Meier Estimate of Progression-Free Survival by Independent Radiology/Clinical Review Committee Assessment in the Natural Killer Cell Count-Low Subgroup | up to 46.5 months | Progression-free survival was defined as the time from randomization to tumor progression or death from any cause. |
| Secondary | Best Objective Response Rate (ORR) by Independent Radiology/Clinical Review Committee Assessment in the Overall Population | up to 77 months | Best ORR was defined as the percentage of patients with complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) based on the best response achieved at any time during the study. Per International Working Group response criteria: CR: the disappearance of all evidence of disease; PR: regression of measurable disease and no new sites. |
| Secondary | Best ORR by Independent Radiology/Clinical Review Committee Assessment in the Natural Killer Cell Count-Low Subgroup | up to 77 months | Best ORR was defined as the percentage of patients with CR or PR based on the best response achieved at any time during the study. Per International Working Group response criteria: CR: the disappearance of all evidence of disease; PR: regression of measurable disease and no new sites. |
| Secondary | Kaplan-Meier Estimate of Duration of Response by Independent Radiology/Clinical Review Committee Assessment in the Overall Population | up to 40.2 months | Duration of response was defined as the elapsed time (in months) between the date of the first documented response (CR or PR) and the following date of an event defined as the first documented progression (any new lesion or an increase by ≥50% of previously involved sites from nadir) or death. Per International Working Group response criteria: CR: the disappearance of all evidence of disease; PR: regression of measurable disease and no new sites. |
| Secondary | Kaplan-Meier Estimate of Duration of Response by Independent Radiology/Clinical Review Committee Assessment in the Natural Killer Cell Count-Low Subgroup | up to 44.7 months | Duration of response was defined as the elapsed time (in months) between the date of the first documented response (CR or PR) and the following date of an event defined as the first documented progression (any new lesion or an increase by ≥50% of previously involved sites from nadir) or death. Per International Working Group response criteria: CR: the disappearance of all evidence of disease; PR: regression of measurable disease and no new sites. |
| Secondary | Kaplan-Meier Estimate of Overall Survival in the Overall Population | up to 50.0 months | Overall survival was defined as the time (in months) from randomization until death from any cause. |
| Secondary | Kaplan-Meier Estimate of Overall Survival in the Natural Killer Cell Count-Low Subgroup | up to 50.6 months | Overall survival was defined as the time (in months) from randomization until death from any cause. |
| Secondary | Disease Control Rate (DCR) by Independent Radiology/Clinical Review Committee Assessment in the Overall Population | up to 77 months | DCR was defined as the percentage of participants with a CR, PR, or stable disease (SD) based on the best response achieved at any time during the study. Per the International Working Group response criteria: CR: the disappearance of all evidence of disease; PR: regression of measurable disease and no new sites; SD: failure to attain CR/PR or progressive disease (PD; any new lesion or an increase by ≥50% of previously involved sites from nadir). |
| Secondary | DCR by Independent Radiology/Clinical Review Committee Assessment in the Natural Killer Cell Count-Low Subgroup | up to 77 months | DCR was defined as the percentage of participants with a CR, PR, or SD based on the best response achieved at any time during the study.
