Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Intracranial Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) [ Time Frame: Up to 66 months ]
    Intracranial Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) is defined as the percentage of all treated participants whose best overall response is either a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) or whose best overall response was Stable Disease (SD) with duration of >6 months, as determined by modified RECIST 1.1 criteria for index intracranial lesions based on investigator review.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Intracranial Objective Response Rate (ORR) [ Time Frame: Up to 66 months ]
    Investigator-Assessed Intracranial Objective Response Rate (ORR) per modified RECIST 1.1 criteria is defined as the number of participants who achieve a best overall response (BOR) of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) divided by the number of treated participants.

  2. Intracranial Progression Free Survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: Up to 66 months ]
    Intracranial progression-free survival (PFS) per modified RECIST 1.1 criteria is defined as the time between the date of first dose of study drug and the first date of documented progression, as determined by the investigator, or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. Participant who die without a reported progression will be considered to have progressed on the date of their death. Participants who did not progress or die will be censored on the date of their last evaluable tumor assessment. Participants who did not have any on study tumor assessments and did not die will be censored on the date of first dose of study drug. Participants who started anti-cancer therapy without a prior reported progression will be censored on the date of their last evaluable tumor assessment prior to the initiation of subsequent anti-cancer therapy.

  3. Extracranial Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) [ Time Frame: Up to 66 months ]
    Extracranial Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) is defined as the percentage of all treated participants whose best overall response is either a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) or whose best overall response was Stable Disease (SD) with duration of >6 months, as determined by RECIST 1.1 criteria for index extracranial lesions based on investigator review.

  4. Extracranial Objective Response Rate (ORR) [ Time Frame: Up to 66 months ]
    Extracranial Objective Response Rate (ORR) per RECIST 1.1 criteria is defined as the number of participants who achieve a best overall response (BOR) of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) divided by the number of treated participants.

  5. Extracranial Progression Free Survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: Up to 66 months ]
    Extracranial progression-free survival (PFS) per RECIST 1.1 criteria is defined as the time between the date of first dose of study drug and the first date of documented progression, as determined by the investigator, or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. Participant who die without a reported progression will be considered to have progressed on the date of their death. Participants who did not progress or die will be censored on the date of their last evaluable tumor assessment. Participants who did not have any on study tumor assessments and did not die will be censored on the date of first dose of study drug. Participants who started anti-cancer therapy without a prior reported progression will be censored on the date of their last evaluable tumor assessment prior to the initiation of subsequent anti-cancer therapy.

  6. Global Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) [ Time Frame: Up to 66 months ]
    Investigator-assessed global (intracranial + extracranial) clinical benefit rate (CBR) per a combination of modified RECIST 1.1 criteria for intracranial lesions and RECIST 1.1 for extracranial disease is defined as the percentage of all treated participants whose best overall response is either a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) or whose best overall response was Stable Disease (SD) with duration of >6 months

  7. Global Objective Response Rate (ORR) [ Time Frame: Up to 66 months ]
    Investigator-assessed global objective response rate (ORR) per a combination of modified RECIST 1.1 criteria for intracranial lesions and RECIST 1.1 for extracranial disease is defined as the number of participants who achieve a best overall response (BOR) of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) divided by the number of treated participants.

  8. Global Progression Free Survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: Up to 66 months ]
    Investigator-assessed global progression free survival (PFS) per a combination of modified RECIST 1.1 criteria for intracranial lesions and RECIST 1.1 for extracranial disease is defined as the time between the date of first dose of study drug and the first date of documented progression, as determined by the investigator, or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. Participant who die without a reported progression will be considered to have progressed on the date of their death. Participants who did not progress or die will be censored on the date of their last evaluable tumor assessment. Participants who did not have any on study tumor assessments and did not die will be censored on the date of first dose of study drug. Participants who started anti-cancer therapy without a prior reported progression will be censored on the date of their last evaluable tumor assessment prior to the initiation of subsequent anti-cancer therapy.

  9. Overall Survival (OS) [ Time Frame: Up to 66 months ]
    Overall Survival (OS) is defined as the time from the date of the start of treatment until the date of death. For participants who have not died, OS will be censored at the recorded last date of participant contact, and participants with a missing recorded last date of contact will be censored at the last date the participant was known to be alive.
