E.5.1

Primary end point(s)

Best ORR, defined as the best response recorded from the start of the study treatment until the end of treatment.

Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point

All responses will be confirmed by BICR 8 weeks after onset of response.

E.5.2

Secondary end point(s)

- PFS, defined as the time from randomization to first occurrence of tumor progression assessed by BICR (RECIST 1.1) based on CT-scans/MRIs conducted every 8 weeks after start of treatment, or death from any cause.
- The duration of overall response (DOR) is measured according to RECIST 1.1 from the time measurement criteria are first met for CR/PR (whichever is first recorded) until the first date that recurrent or progressive disease is objectively documented (taking as reference for progressive disease the smallest measurements recorded on study).
- OS, defined as time from randomization to death from any cause
- Quality of Life assessed using the EQ-5D patient reported outcome questionnaire (PRO).
- Safety & tolerability defined as number and severity of adverse events (AEs), including clinically significant abnormal laboratory findings, regardless of causal relationship to arfolitixorin or LV. Specific AEs will be followed using PRO (NCI PRO-CTCAE).
- Patients undergoing curative metastasis resection defined as the number of patients qualifying for curative metastasis resection after treatment with study drug.

E.5.2.1

Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point

PFS, DOR and EQ-5D will be assessed every 8 weeks after start of treatment.
OS will be assessed every 12 weeks after the End of Treatment Visit
Safety and tolerability will ba assessed at each timepoint until the End of Treatment Visit
Patient undergoing curative metastasis resection will ba assessed at the End of Treatment Visit

Definition of the end of the trial and justification where it is not the last visit of the last subject undergoing the trial

A patient is considered to have completed the study if he/she has completed all phases of the study including the last contact to collect the death date. All patients will be followed for survival status until 60% of all death events have occurred. The final analysis of PFS will be performed when approximately 300 PFS events have been observed. If the sample size is increased to 660 patients, the final analysis of PFS will be performed when approximately 450 PFS events have been observed.
