ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryProgression-free Survival (PFS) Per Modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors v1.1 (RECIST v1.1) as Assessed by InvestigatorFrom randomization until documented PD or death, censored date, whichever occurred first (up to 37 months)
PFS was defined as the time (in months) from the date of randomization to the first documentation of objective progressive disease (PD) per modified RECIST v1.1 as assessed by Investigator or death (due to any cause), whichever occurred first. Analysis was performed using Kaplan Meier method. PD refers to any of following: 1) Locoregional PD confirmed by pathology to verify radiographic changes represent true tumor progression and not radiation effects or non-malignant contrast enhancement. 2) Locoregional clinically detectable progression confirmed by pathology. 3) Surgical removal (salvage) of primary tumor with tumor present on final pathology. 4) Salvage neck dissection greater than (\>) 20 weeks after completion of CRT with tumor present on final pathology. 5) Metastatic PD. PFS data was censored on date of last adequate tumor assessment for participants with no PFS event.
SecondaryOverall Survival (OS)From randomization to the date of death or censored date, whichever occurred first (up to 37 months)
Overall survival was defined as the time (in months) from the date of randomization to the date of death due to any cause. Participants last known to be alive were censored at date of last contact. Analysis was performed using Kaplan Meier method.
SecondaryPathologic Complete Response (pCR) Rate in Participants With Salvage Surgery at the Primary SiteFrom randomization until PD or death (up to 37 months)
pCR was defined as the absence of histologically identifiable residual cancer in any resected specimen. The pCR rate at primary site was estimated by dividing the number of participants with pCR recorded at any visit from randomization until PD per modified RECIST v1.1 or death due to any cause by the number of participants randomized who had salvage surgery at the primary site.
SecondaryTime to Locoregional Failure Per Modified RECIST v1.1 as Assessed by InvestigatorFrom the date of randomization to the date of the first documentation of locoregional recurrence or death, whichever occurred first (up to 37 months)
Locoregional failure was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of the first documentation of locoregional recurrence or death due to any cause per modified RECIST v1.1 as assessed by Investigator, whichever occurred first. Analysis was performed using Kaplan Meier method.
SecondaryObjective Response Rate (ORR) Per Modified RECIST v1.1 as Assessed by InvestigatorFrom randomization until disease progression or death, whichever occurred first (up to 37 months)
Objective response (OR) was defined as a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) per RECIST v1.1 recorded from randomization until disease progression per modified RECIST v1.1 or death due to any cause. A participant was considered to have achieved an OR if the participant had a CR or PR which did not need to be confirmed at a subsequent assessment. CR for target disease: complete disappearance of all target lesions with the exception of nodal disease. All target nodes must decrease to normal size (short axis less than \[\<\] 10 millimeter \[mm\]). CR for non-target disease: disappearance of all non-target lesions and normalization of tumor marker levels. All lymph nodes must be 'normal' in size (\<10 mm short axis) . PR: Greater than or equal to (\>=) 30% decrease under baseline of the sum of diameters of all target measurable lesions. The ORR was estimated by dividing the number of participants with OR (CR or PR) by the number of participants randomized.
SecondaryTime to Distant Metastatic Failure Per Modified RECIST v1.1 as Assessed by InvestigatorFrom the date of randomization to the date of the first documentation of distant metastatic or death (up to 37 months)
Time to distant metastatic failure or distant metastasis (DM) was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of the first documentation of distant metastatic or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first. Distant metastatic disease was defined as new tumor identified at a site distant from the head and neck anatomic region or draining lymph nodes. Analysis was performed using Kaplan Meier method.
SecondaryDuration of Response (DOR) Per Modified RECIST v1.1 as Assessed by InvestigatorFrom the first documentation of objective tumor response to the first documentation of PD or death or censored date, whichever occurred first (up to 37 months)
DOR:time from first documentation of objective tumor response (CR/PR) to first documentation of PD/death due to any cause, whichever occurred first.PR:\>=30% decrease under baseline of sum of diameters of all target measurable lesions. CR for target disease:complete disappearance of all target lesions with exception of nodal disease.CR for non-target disease: disappearance of all non-target lesions and normalization of tumor marker levels. PD is any of following:1)Locoregional PD confirmed by pathology to verify radiographic changes denote true tumor progression and not radiation effects or non-malignant contrast enhancement.2)Locoregional clinically detectable progression confirmed by pathology.3)Surgical removal of primary tumor with tumor present on final pathology.4)Salvage neck dissection \>20 weeks after completion of CRT with tumor present on final pathology.5)Metastatic PD. DOR data was censored on date of last adequate tumor assessment for participants with no overall response.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) as Graded by National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria (NCI-CTCAE), Version 4.03Baseline up to 44 months
Adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. As per NCI-CTCAE version 4.03, severity was graded as Grade 1: asymptomatic/mild symptoms, clinical/diagnostic observations only, intervention not indicated; Grade 2: moderate, minimal, local/noninvasive intervention indicated, limiting age-appropriate instrumental activities of daily life (ADL); Grade 3: severe/medically significant but not immediately life-threatening, hospitalization/prolongation of existing hospitalization indicated, disabling, limiting self-care ADL; Grade 4: life-threatening consequence, urgent intervention indicated; Grade 5: death related to AE. TEAE was defined as event with onset dates occurring during the on-treatment period.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Shift From Baseline in Clinical Laboratory ParametersBaseline up to 15 months
Grade 1 and 3 ranges are: Anemia:Hb:\<LLN-10.0,\<8.0 g/dL;LC decreased (dec):\<LLN-800/mm\^3,500-200/mm\^3;LC increased (inc):grade 3:\>20,000/mm\^3:NC dec:\<LLN-1500/mm\^3;\<1000-500/mm\^3;PC dec:\<LLN-75,000/mm\^3;\<50,000-25,000/mm\^3;WBC dec:\<LLN-3000/mm\^3;\<2000-1000/mm\^3;ALT inc:\>ULN-3.0\*ULN;\>5.0-20.0\*ULN;ALP \& GGT inc:\>ULN-2.5\*ULN;\>5.0-20.0\*ULN;AST inc:\>ULN-3.0\*ULN;\>5.0-20.0\*ULN;BB inc:\>ULN-1.5\*ULN;\>3.0-10.0\*ULN;CH high:\>ULN-300 mg/dL;\>400-500 mg/dL;CPK inc:\>ULN-2.5\*ULN;\>5\*ULN-10\*ULN;Hypercalcemia:\>ULN-11.5;\>12.5-13.5mg/dL;Hyperglycemia:\>ULN-160; \>250-500mg/dL;Hyperkalemia:\>ULN-5.5;\>6.0-7.0mmol/L;Hypermagnesemia:\>ULN-3.0;\>3.0-8.0 mg/dL;Hypernatremia:\>ULN-150; \>155-160 mmol/L;Hypertriglyceridemia;150-300;\>500-1000 mg/dL;Hypoalbuminemia:\<LLN-3;\<2g/dL;Hypocalcemia:\<LLN-8.0;\<8.0-7.0mg/dL;Hypokalemia:\<LLN-3.0;\<3.0-2.5mmol/L;Hypomagnesemia;\<LLN-1.2;\<0.9-0.7 mg/dL;Hyponatremia:\<LLN-130;\<130-120mmol/L; Hypophosphatemia:\<LLN-2.5;\<2.0-1.0mg/dL;lipase \& serum amylase inc:\>ULN-1.5\*ULN;\>2.0-5.0\*ULN.
