ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryProgression-Free Survival (PFS) as Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Version (v)1.1 Based on Investigator AssessmentFrom the date of randomization to the date of PD or death from any cause or censoring date, whichever occurred first (maximum up to 43 months)
PFS as per investigator was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the investigator assessment of disease progression (PD) as per RECIST v1.1 or death from any cause, whichever occurred first. PD: at least a 20 percent (%) increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 millimiter (mm). Participants without documentation of PD, or death at the time of analysis were censored at the date of the last tumor assessment.
SecondaryOverall Survival (OS)Up to approximately 5 years
OS was defined as the time from randomization to death due to any cause. For a participant who was not known to have died by the end of study follow-up, observation of OS was censored on the date the participant was last known to be alive (i.e., the date of last contact).
SecondaryProgression-Free Survival as Per RECIST v1.1 in Participants With Brain Metastases at Baseline Based on Investigator AssessmentFrom the date of randomization to the date of PD or death from any cause or censoring date, whichever occurred first (maximum up to 45 months)
PFS as per investigator was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the investigator assessment of PD as per RECIST v1.1 or death from any cause, whichever occurred first. PD: at least a 20 % increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. Participants without documentation of PD, or death at the time of analysis were censored at the date of the last tumor assessment. PFS was analyzed in participants with presence or history of brain metastases.
SecondaryObjective Response Rate (ORR) as Per RECIST v1.1 Based on Investigator AssessmentFrom the date of first CR or PR until the date of the first documentation of PD or death, whichever occurred first (maximum up to 43 months)
ORR was defined as the percentage of participants with confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) according to RECIST v1.1. CR: disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have reduction in short axis to less than (\<)10 mm. PR: a greater than equal (\>=) 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. For a response to be considered as confirmed, the subsequent response needs to be at least 4 weeks after the initial response. ORR by investigator assessment is based on investigator response assessments. Two-sided 95% exact confidence interval, computed using the Clopper-Pearson method.
SecondaryOverall Survival in Participants With Brain Metastases at BaselineUp to approximately 5 years
OS was defined as the time from randomization to death due to any cause. For a participant who was not known to have died by the end of study follow-up, observation of OS was censored on the date the participant was last known to be alive (i.e., the date of last contact). OS was analyzed in participants with presence or history of brain metastases.
SecondaryProgression-Free Survival as Per RECIST v1.1 Determined by Blinded Independent Committee Review (BICR)From the date of randomization to the date of PD or death from any cause or censoring date, whichever occurred first (maximum up to 43 months)
PFS as per BICR was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the centrally-reviewed documented PD as per RECIST v1.1 or death from any cause, whichever occurred first. PD: at least a 20 % increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. Participants without documented progression of PD or death at the time of analysis were censored at the date of the last tumor assessment.
SecondaryProgression-Free Survival in Participants With Brain Metastases at Baseline as Per RECIST v1.1 Determined by BICRFrom the date of randomization to the date of PD or death from any cause or censoring date, whichever occurred first (maximum up to 43 months)
PFS as per BICR was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the centrally-reviewed documented PD as per RECIST v1.1 or death from any cause, whichever occurred first. PD: at least a 20 % increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. PFS was analyzed in participants with presence or history of brain metastases.
SecondaryObjective Response Rate as Per RECIST v1.1 Determined by BICRFrom the date of randomization to the date of PD or death from any cause or censoring date, whichever occurred first (maximum up to 43 months)
ORR was defined as the percentage of participants with confirmed CR or PR according to RECIST v1.1. CR: Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have reduction in short axis to \<10 mm. PR: A \>= 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. ORR per BICR is based on BICR response assessments.
SecondaryDuration of Response (DOR) as Per RECIST v1.1 Based on Investigator AssessmentUp to approximately 5 years
DOR was defined as the time from first documentation of objective response (CR or PR that is subsequently confirmed) to the first documentation of PD as per RECIST v1.1 PD: at least a 20 % increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. Participants without documentation of PD, or death at the time of analysis were censored at the date of the last tumor assessment. CR: disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have reduction in short axis to \<10 mm. PR: A\>=30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. DOR per investigator was based on investigator response assessments.
