Part B: Duration of Response According to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version (RECIST) 1.1 [20] | ||||||||
End point description |
The duration of response as determined from IERC tumor assessment was calculated for each subject with a confirmed response (CR or PR) as the time from first observation of response until first observation of documented disease progression or death when death occurs within 12 weeks of the last tumor assessment, whichever occurs first. CR: Disappearance of all evidence of target and non-target lesions. PR: At least 30% reduction from baseline in the sum of the longest diameter (SLD) of all lesions. Full Analysis Set included all subjects who received at least 1 dose of study treatment. Here "Number of subjects analyzed" signifies those subjects who were evaluable for this endpoint.

Part B: Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Time According to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version (RECIST) 1.1 [21] | ||||||||
End point description |
The PFS time (based on IERC tumor assessments), according to the RECIST 1.1, was defined as the time from first administration of study treatment until first observation of PD or death when death occurred within 12 weeks of the last tumor assessment or first administration of study treatment (whichever was later). PFS time (in months) was defined as: (date of PD or death – date of the first dose of study treatment + 1)/30.4375 (months). PD was defined as at least a 20% increase in the SLD, taking as reference the smallest SLD recorded from baseline or the appearance of 1 or more new lesions and unequivocal progression of non-target lesions. Full Analysis Set included all subjects who received at least 1 dose of study treatment.

Part B: Number of Subjects with Treatment-Related (TR) Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Treatment-Related Serious TEAEs and Treatment-Related TEAEs leading to Death [22] | ||||||||||||
End point description |
Related Adverse events (AE) were defined according to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Version 4.0 (NCI-CTCAE) as adverse events with relationship to study treatment reported by the investigator. A serious adverse event (SAE) was an AE that resulted in any of the following outcomes: death; life threatening; persistent/significant disability/incapacity; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; congenital anomaly/birth defect or was otherwise considered medically important. Treatment-emergent are events between first dose of study drug that were absent before treatment or that worsened relative to pre-treatment state up to 30 days after last administration. TEAEs included both Serious TEAEs and non-serious TEAEs. Related TEAEs are defined as events with a relationship of missing, unknown, or yes. Full Analysis Set included all subjects who received at least 1 dose of study treatment.

End point description |
The response status at 6 and 12 months after start of trial treatment according to RECIST 1.1 (as determined by the IERC) was determined. A subject was considered to be in response at the given timepoint (6 or 12 months after the start of the subject's treatment) if the subject had a documented response (PR or CR) prior to that timepoint, and neither died nor experienced disease progression according to the RECIST 1.1 nor was lost to follow-up up to the given timepoint. CR: Disappearance of all evidence of target and non-target lesions. PR: At least 30% reduction from baseline in the sum of the longest diameter (SLD) of all lesions. Percentage of subjects in response and not in response according to RECIST1.1 at 6 and 12 months were reported.
