Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Part 1 (Safety Run-in): Number of Participants With Dose-limiting Toxicities (DLTs) | During the first 42 days of dosing | A DLT was defined as an adverse event or abnormal laboratory value assessed as unrelated to disease progression, inter-current illness, or concomitant medications that met certain criteria as defined in the protocol. |
| Primary | Part 2 (Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled): Progression-free Survival (PFS) Per Investigator Assessment Using RECIST v1.1 | 18 months | Progression free survival was defined as the time from randomization to the date of the first documented radiological progression using RECIST 1.1 (Response evaluation criteria in solid tumor) or death due to any cause. |
| Primary | Part 2 (Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled): Overall Survival (OS) Per Investigator Assessment Using RECIST v1.1 | Up to approximately 32 months | Overall survival is defined as the time from date of randomization to date of death due to any cause. |
| Secondary | Part 1 (Safety Run-in): Overall Response Rate (ORR) Per Investigator Assessment Using RECIST v1.1 | Up to approximately 14 months | ORR was defined as the percentage of participants with confirmed best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR), as per investigator's assessment by RECIST 1.1. CR=Disappearance of all non-nodal target lesions. In addition, any pathological lymph nodes assigned as target lesions must have a reduction in short axis to \< 10 mm; PR= At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameter of all target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters. |
| Secondary | Part 2 (Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled): Overall Response Rate (ORR) Per Investigator Assessment Using RECIST v1.1 | Up to approximately 26 months | ORR was defined as the percentage of participants with confirmed best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR), as per investigator's assessment by RECIST 1.1. CR=Disappearance of all non-nodal target lesions. In addition, any pathological lymph nodes assigned as target lesions must have a reduction in short axis to \< 10 mm; PR= At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameter of all target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters. |
| Secondary | Part 1 (Safety run-in): Disease Control Rate (DCR) Per Investigator Assessment Using RECIST v1.1 | Up to approximately 14 months | Disease control rate was defined as the percentage of participants with complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) or participants with stable disease (SD) as per investigator assessment according to RECIST 1.1 criteria. CR=Disappearance of all non-nodal target lesions. In addition, any pathological lymph nodes assigned as target lesions must have a reduction in short axis to \< 10 mm; PR= At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameter of all target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters; SD=Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR or CR nor an increase in lesions which would qualify for progressive disease. |
| Secondary | Part 2 (Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled): Disease Control Rate (DCR) Per Investigator Assessment Using RECIST v1.1 | Up to approximately 26 months | Disease control rate was defined as the percentage of participants with complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) or participants with stable disease (SD) as per investigator assessment according to RECIST 1.1 criteria. CR=Disappearance of all non-nodal target lesions. In addition, any pathological lymph nodes assigned as target lesions must have a reduction in short axis to \< 10 mm; PR= At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameter of all target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters; SD=Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR or CR nor an increase in lesions which would qualify for progressive disease. |
| Secondary | Part 1 (Safety run-in): Duration of Response (DOR) Per Investigator Assessment Using RECIST v1.1 | Up to approximately 25 months | Duration of response was defined as the time from first documented response of CR or PR to date of first documented progression or death due to any cause, according to RECIST 1.1 criteria. DOR only applied to participants whose best overall response was CR or PR based on tumor response data per local review. If a participant did not have an event, DOR was censored at the date of last adequate tumor assessment. CR=Disappearance of all non-nodal target lesions. In addition, any pathological lymph nodes assigned as target lesions must have a reduction in short axis to \< 10 mm; PR= At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameter of all target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters. |
| Secondary | Part 2 (Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled): Duration of Response (DOR) Per Investigator Assessment Using RECIST v1.1 | Up to approximately 26 months | Duration of response was defined as the time from first documented response of CR or PR to date of first documented progression or death due to any cause, according to RECIST 1.1 criteria. DOR only applied to participants whose best overall response was CR or PR based on tumor response data per local review. If a participant did not have an event, DOR was censored at the date of last adequate tumor assessment. CR=Disappearance of all non-nodal target lesions. In addition, any pathological lymph nodes assigned as target lesions must have a reduction in short axis to \< 10 mm; PR= At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameter of all target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters. |
| Secondary | Part 2 (Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled): Time to Response (TTR) Per Investigator Assessment Using RECIST v1.1 | Up to approximately 26 months | Time to response (TTR) was defined as duration of time between the date of randomization and the date of first documented response of either CR or PR, according to RECIST 1.1 criteria. Duration of response was defined as the time from first documented response of CR or PR to date of first documented progression or death due to any cause, according to RECIST 1.1 criteria. CR=Disappearance of all non-nodal target lesions. In addition, any pathological lymph nodes assigned as target lesions must have a reduction in short axis to \< 10 mm; PR= At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameter of all target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters. |
