Registered outcomes7

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

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPercentage of Participants With Overall Survival3 monthsOverall Survival (OS) is defined as the time from registration to death due to any cause, or censored at date last known alive.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Treatment-related Adverse Events2 yearsGrade 3 or 4 treatment-related adverse events occurring in at least 15% of participants, based on CTCAE v4.0 criteria.
SecondaryCumulative Incidence of Progressive Disease at 3 Months for Intracranial Sites3 months post-treatment
Cumulative incidence describes the average probability of developing progressive disease (PD) by immunotherapy response assessment for neuro-oncology (iRANO) criteria. PD is defined as any of the following: (1) \>/= 25% increase in 2-dimensional contrast lesions; (2) significant worsened changes on T2-weighted MRI scans; (3) new lesion; or (4) significant clinical decline. Confirmation of progressive disease is based on follow-up imaging for participants without significant clinical decline.
SecondaryCumulative Incidence of Progressive Disease at 3 Months for Extracranial Sites3 months post-treatment
Cumulative incidence describes the average probability of developing progressive disease (PD) by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 criteria. PD is defined as any of the following: (1) \>/= 25% increase in 2-dimensional contrast lesions; (2) significant worsened changes on T2-weighted MRI scans; (3) new lesion; or (4) significant clinical decline. Confirmation of progressive disease is based on follow-up imaging for participants without significant clinical decline.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Leptomeningeal Disease (LMD) Response Post-Treatment6-9 weeks after treatment initiation
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) collection and cytology is done 6-9 weeks after treatment initiation to assess for LMD response, especially complete response or partial response. Complete Response is defined as: * Reversion to negative CSF cytology (or NA) * Disappearance of all disease related symptoms present prior to therapy (or NA) * Complete disappearance of all detectable radiographic evidence of disease (or NA). Partial Response is defined as: * \> 50% decrease in malignant CSF cytology * Improvement in neurologic symptoms or no worsening of symptoms * Improvement in radiographic evidence of disease. No new sites of measurable or assessable central nervous system (CNS) disease.
SecondaryExtracranial Progression-Free Survival2 years
Extracranial Progression-Free Survival (EPFS) is defined as the time from first dose of study drug to documented extracranial disease progression or death, whichever occurs first. Extracranial disease progression is assessed with CT scans of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis, by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 criteria and immune-related response criteria (irRC) criteria. Progression is defined using RECIST v1.0 as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions. The follow-up of participants who have neither died nor progressed at the time of analysis will be censored at the date of last adequate disease assessment.
SecondaryIntracranial Progression-Free Survival2 years
Intracranial Progression-Free Survival (IPFS) is defined as the time from first dose of study drug to documented intracranial disease progression or death, whichever occurs first. Intracranial disease progression is assessed with CT or MRI scans of the brain, using the Response assessment in neuro-oncology (RANO) criteria, which defines progression as: * ≥ 25% increase in in the sum of products of all measurable lesions over smallest sum observed (over baseline if no decrease) using the same techniques as baseline; or * Presence of new lesions; or * Worsening of clinical/neurologic status (unless clearly unrelated to the cancer); or * Worsening of non-measurable disease. The follow-up of participants who have neither died nor progressed at the time of analysis will be censored at the date of last adequate disease assessment.

SECONDARYNumber of Participants With Leptomeningeal Disease (LMD) Response Post-Treatment6-9 weeks after treatment initiation
Due to the clinical nature of LMD with rapidly progressive disease, the majority participants did not undergo post-treatment lumbar punctures before going off study or passing away. CSF cytology 6-9 weeks after treatment initiation was only obtained on 4 participants, which does not provide statistically meaningful interpretation of data. Individual results are reported below.
