ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryObjective Response Rate (ORR) Per Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)From date of randomization to disease progression (Up to 37 months)
ORR is defined as the percentage of participants with a confirmed best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) using RECIST v 1.1 per blinded independent central review (BICR) assessment. CR=Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have reduction in short axis to \< 10 mm. PR=At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions.
PrimaryProgression-free Survival (PFS) Per Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)From date of randomization to disease progression, or death, whichever comes first (Up to 37 months)
PFS is defined as the time between the date of randomization and the first date of documented tumor progression using RECIST v 1.1 per blinded independent central review (BICR), or death due to any cause, whichever comes first. Progressive disease (PD)=At least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions. The sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm.
PrimaryOverall Survival (OS)From date of randomization to date of death (Up to 37 months)
OS is defined as the time between the date of randomization and the date of death due to any cause. Participants who do not have a date of death will be censored on the last date for which a participant was known to be alive.
SecondaryClinical Benefit Rate (CBR) Per Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)From date of randomization to disease progression (Up to 37 months)
CBR, or equivalently the disease control rate (DCR) is defined as the percentage of participants with a best overall response of complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR) using RECIST v 1.1. CR=Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have reduction in short axis to \< 10 mm. PR=At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions.SD=Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease.
SecondaryDuration of Response (DoR) Per Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)From date of randomization to disease progression, or death, whichever is earlier (Up to 37 months)
DOR is defined for participants who have a confirmed complete response (CR) or partial results (PR) as the date from first documented CR or PR using RECIST v 1.1 to the date of the documentation of disease progression per blinded independent central review (BICR) assessment or death due to any cause, whichever is earlier. CR=Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have reduction in short axis to \< 10 mm. PR=At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions.
SecondaryTime to Objective Response (TTR) Per Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)From date of randomization to disease progression (Up to 37 months)
Time to response (TTR) is defined for participants who had a confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as the time from the date of randomization to date of first documented CR or PR per blinded independent central review (BICR) assessment using RECIST v 1.1. CR=Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have reduction in short axis to \< 10 mm. PR=At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions.
SecondaryObjective Response Rate (ORR) Per InvestigatorFrom date of randomization to disease progression (Up to 37 months)
ORR is defined as the percentage of participants with a confirmed best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) using RECIST v 1.1 per investigator assessment. CR=Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have reduction in short axis to \< 10 mm. PR=At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions.
SecondaryProgression-free Survival (PFS) Per InvestigatorFrom date of randomization to disease progression, or death, whichever comes first (Up to 37 months)
PFS is defined as the time between the date of randomization and the first date of documented tumor progression using RECIST v 1.1 per investigator, or death due to any cause, whichever comes first. Progressive disease (PD)=At least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions. The sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm.
SecondaryClinical Benefit Rate (CBR) Per InvestigatorFrom date of randomization to disease progression (Up to 37 months)
CBR, or equivalently the disease control rate (DCR) is defined as the percentage of participants with a best overall response of complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) as assessed by investigator using RECIST v 1.1. CR=Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have reduction in short axis to \< 10 mm. PR=At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions. SD=Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD.
SecondaryDuration of Response (DoR) Per InvestigatorFrom date of randomization to disease progression, or death, whichever is earlier (Up to 37 months)
DOR is defined for participants who have a confirmed complete response (CR) or partial results (PR) as the date from first documented CR or PR using RECIST v 1.1 to the date of the documentation of disease progression per investigator assessment or death due to any cause, whichever is earlier. CR=Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have reduction in short axis to \< 10 mm. PR=At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions.
