E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
- Overall survival (OS) - Key Secondary Endpoint- Event-Free Survival (EFS) for Accelerated Approval: |
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
- Time from randomization to death due to any cause. - The EFS endpoint would be a composite time-to-event endpoint, the event being 'treatment failure' defined as the earliest occurrence of: − Failure to achieve disease-free status locally after completion of neoadjuvant treatment and/or after surgery (i.e., resection failure or progression that precludes surgery) − Local or distant recurrence, or − Death
|
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
- Progression-free survival (PFS)
- RECIST 1.1 – Best Overall Objective Response Rate (ORR), defined as the proportion of patients who achieve CR (Complete Response) or PR (Partial Response) during treatment period
|
|
E.5.2.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
Analysis of Progression-free Survival (PFS) PFS is defined as the time from randomization until disease progression or death, whichever occurs first. Analysis of Best Overall Objective Response Rate (ORR) Best overall objective response rate (ORR) is one of the secondary endpoints where objective response is defined as a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) according to RECIST 1.1. Detailed information is summarized within the protocol. |
