E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Anti-tumor activity of all the agents, as the primary objective of the trial, will be carried out by the determination of the progression-free survival assessed in each arm of treatment.
Progression-free survival (PFS) is defined as the time from randomization to the first documented progression of disease or death, whatever the cause. The tumor assessments are made by the investigators based on RECIST 1.1 criteria ([Eisenhauer 2009]). Patients still alive at the time of analysis without documented progression (including lost of follow-up) will be censored at the last known alive date. |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
Overall Survival :
Overall Survival (OS) is defined as the time from randomization to death due to any cause. Patients still alive at the time of analysis (including lost of follow-up) will be censored at the last known alive date.
Response and change in tumor size:
Objective response (i.e. complete or partial response) will be defined using RECIST V1.1 criteria.
Changes in tumor size over time will also be analysed.
Safety :
Evaluation of safety will be done according to NCI CTCAE v4.03 criteria. |
