Title Progression Free Survival (PFS) as Assessed by Central Independent Review
Hide Description

Progression Free Survival (PFS) as assessed by central independent review according to the modified Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) . Progression free survival (PFS) is defined as the duration of time from date of randomisation to date of progression or death (whatever occurs earlier).

Median, 25th and 75th percentiles are calculated from an unadjusted Kaplan-Meier curve.

Time Frame From randomisation until cut-off date 2 November 2010 (when 713 PFS events were observed)

2.Secondary Outcome
Title Overall Survival (Key Secondary Endpoint)
Hide Description

Overall Survival (OS) defined as the duration from randomisation to death (irrespective of the reason of death). Median, 25th and 75th percentiles are calculated from an unadjusted Kaplan-Meier curve.

A fixed-sequence-testing was implemented for key secondary endpoint if both the primary and the follow-up analysis showed a treatment benefit (P<0.05) of nintedanib over placebo. In this case, the OS would be tested using hierarchical testing of statistical hypotheses in (1) patients with adenocarcinoma and <9 months since start of first-line therapy, (2) patients with adenocarcinoma, and (3) all patients. Each hypothesis could be only tested at the pre-specified alpha level if the previous null hypothesis in the testing sequence had been.

Title Clinical Improvement
Hide Description

Clinical improvement was defined as the time from randomisation to deterioration in body weight and/or Eastern Cooperative Oncology group performance score (ECOG PS) whichever occurred first.

Median, 25th and 75th percentiles are calculated from an unadjusted Kaplan-Meier curve.

Title Quality of Life (QoL)
Hide Description

Quality of life (QoL) was measured by standardised questionnaires (Health Status Self-Assessment Questionnaire (EQ-5D), EORTC Quality of life questionnaire - Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30), Quality of life questionnaire - lung cancer module (EORTC QLQ-LC13). The EORTC QLQ-C30 comprises of 30 questions, using both multi-item scales and single-item measures. EORTC LC-13 comprises of 13 questions incorporating 1 multi-item scale and a series of single items.

The following were the main points of interest:

Time to deterioration of cough (EORTC QLQ-LC13 question 1), Time to deterioration of dyspnoea (QLQ-LC13, composite of questions 3 to 5), Time to deterioration of pain (QLQ- C30, composite of questions 9 and 19).

Time to deterioration of cough, dyspnoea and pain was defined as the time to a 10-point increase from the baseline score.

Median, 25th and 75th percentiles are calculated from an unadjusted Kaplan-Meier curve
