Current Primary Outcome Measures  ICMJE
 (submitted: December 1, 2021)
Progression-Free Survival (PFS) by Independent Review Committee (IRC) Assessment in Brain Metastasis Negative (BM-ve) Population [ Time Frame: From randomization until objective tumor progression or death (assessed every 6 weeks for 9 months and then every 9 weeks thereafter until the occurrence of progression of disease; maximum exposure: 29.6 months) ]
PFS was defined as the time from randomization until objective tumor progression by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 or death, whichever came first. The date of progression was date of the last observation or radiological assessment of target lesions that either showed a predefined increase (greater than or equal to [≥] 20%) in the sum of the target lesions or the appearance of new non-target lesions. PFS was estimated using Kaplan-Meier estimate.

The date of progression was date of the last observation or radiological assessment of target lesions that either showed a predefined increase (≥20%) in the sum of the target lesions or the appearance of new non-target lesions. PFS was estimated using Kaplan-Meier estimate.
  • Overall Survival (OS) in BM-ve Population [ Time Frame: From the randomization to death from any cause (maximum follow-up duration: 30.8 months) ]
    Overall survival (OS) was defined as the time from the randomization to death from any cause. OS was estimated using Kaplan-Meier estimate.
  • Overall Survival (OS) in ITT Population [ Time Frame: From the randomization to death from any cause (maximum follow-up duration: 30.8 months) ]
    Overall survival (OS) was defined as the time from the randomization to death from any cause. OS was estimated using Kaplan-Meier estimate.
  • Objective Response Rate (ORR) by IRC and Investigator Assessment in BM-ve Population [ Time Frame: From randomization to the date of progression or death (assessed every 6 weeks for 9 months and then every 9 weeks thereafter until the occurrence of progression of disease; maximum exposure: 29.6 months) ]
    ORR was defined as the percentage of participants who had the overall best response as either a confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) relative to the size of population under evaluation. CR: Disappearance of all target and non-target lesions; and normalization of tumor marker levels initially above upper limits of normal; and no new lesions. PR: ≥30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum LD; and no new lesions.

CR: Disappearance of all target and non-target lesions; and normalization of tumor marker levels initially above upper limits of normal; and no new lesions. PR: ≥30% decrease in the sum of the LD of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum LD; and no new lesions.
  • Duration of Response (DOR) by IRC and Investigator Assessment in BM-ve Population [ Time Frame: From the first date of documented response of CR or PR to the date of progression or death (assessed every 6 weeks for 9 months and then every 9 weeks thereafter until the occurrence of progression of disease; maximum exposure: 29.6 months) ]
    DOR was defined as the number of days between the first date showing a documented response of CR or PR and the date of progression or death. CR: Disappearance of all target and non-target lesions; and normalization of tumor marker levels initially above upper limits of normal; and no new lesions. PR: ≥30% decrease in the sum of the LD of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum LD; and no new lesions. The date of progression was date of the last observation or radiological assessment of target lesions that either showed a predefined increase (≥20%) in the sum of the target lesions or the appearance of new non-target lesions.
  • Time to Progression (TTP) by Investigator Assessment in BM-ve Population [ Time Frame: From randomization until disease progression (assessed every 6 weeks for 9 months and then every 9 weeks thereafter until the occurrence of progression of disease; maximum exposure: 29.6 months) ]
    Time to Progression (TTP) was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of the first evidence of disease progression as assessed using RECIST 1.1 criteria. The date of progression was date of the last observation or radiological assessment of target lesions that either showed a predefined increase (≥20%) in the sum of the target lesions or the appearance of new non-target lesions. Participants without progression were censored.

    Time to Progression (TTP) was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of the first evidence of disease progression as assessed using RECIST 1.1 criteria. The date of progression was date of the last observation or radiological assessment of target lesions that either showed a predefined increase (≥20%) in the sum of the target lesions or the appearance of new non-target lesions. Participants without progression were censored.
  • Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) by IRC and Investigator Assessment in BM-ve Population [ Time Frame: From randomization to the date of progression or death (assessed every 6 weeks for 9 months and then every 9 weeks thereafter until the occurrence of progression of disease; maximum exposure: 29.6 months) ]
    CBR was defined as the percentage of participants with best response as either CR, PR, or stable disease (SD) with a duration of ≥6 months. CR: Disappearance of all target and non-target lesions; and normalization of tumor marker levels initially above upper limits of normal; and no new lesions. PR: ≥30% decrease in the sum of the LD of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum LD; and no new lesions. SD: Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease (PD), taking as reference the smallest sum LD since the treatment started; and Persistence of one or more non-target lesion(s) or/and maintenance of tumor marker level above the normal limits. PD: ≥20% increase in the sum of LD of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since treatment started or appearance of one or more new lesions and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions.
  • Percentage of Participants Experiencing Any Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), and TEAEs Leading to Discontinuation of Study Drug [ Time Frame: First dose date up to last follow-up (maximum up to 30.8 months) ]
    Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were defined as any adverse events (AEs) that begin or worsen on or after the start of study drug through 30 days after the last dose of study drug. The severity was graded based on the National Cancer Institute's Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Version 4.03. An AE that met one or more of the following outcomes was classified as serious:
    • Fatal
    • Life-threatening
    • Disabling/incapacitating
    • Results in hospitalization or prolongs a hospital stay
    • A congenital abnormality
    • Other important medical events may also be considered serious AEs if they may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above
  • Change From Baseline in European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality-of-Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30) Score [ Time Frame: Baseline; End of Treatment (EOT) (up to 29.6 months) ]
    The EORTC QLQ-C30 is a questionnaire to assess quality of life (QoL), it is composed of 30 questions (items) resulting in 5 functional scales (physical functioning, role functioning, emotional functioning, cognitive functioning, social functioning), 1 global health status scale, 3 symptom scales (fatigue, nausea and vomiting, pain), and 6 single items (dyspnea, insomnia, loss of appetite, constipation, diarrhea, financial difficulties). All of the scales and single-item measures range in score from 0 to 100. Higher score for the functioning scales and global health status indicate a better quality of life; a positive change from baseline indicates improvement. Lower scores on the symptom and single-item scales indicate a better quality of life; a negative change from baseline indicates improvement.
  • Percentage of Participants Experiencing the Worst Laboratory Abnormalities Grade 3 or 4 Post-Baseline [ Time Frame: First dose date up to last follow-up (maximum up to 30.8 months) ]
    Blood samples were collected for hematology, serum chemistry and the laboratory abnormalities were assessed. The most severe graded abnormality observed post-baseline for each graded test was counted for each participant. Safety as assessed by grading of laboratory values and AEs according to the National Cancer Institutes' Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) covering grades 0-5 (0=Normal, 1=Mild, 2=Moderate, 3=Severe, 4=Life-threatening, 5=Death). The percentage of participants with worst postbaseline grades 3 or 4 are reported.
