Definition of the end of the trial and justification where it is not the last
visit of the last subject undergoing the trial
|
The end of the study is defined as the date of study intervention discontinuation by all participants (due to either disease progression, undue toxicity, or withdrawal, and, therefore, are not likely to benefit from tepotinib any longer) and two thirds of the participants have died or were followed up for at least 3 years, whatever occurs first. After the end of the study a final analysis, including an analysis of efficacy and safety, will be conducted in all participants.
