Pre-assignment Details

At baseline, participants were randomized to either everolimus+BSC or placebo+BSC arm. Two patients randomized to the everolimus arm were not treated due to withdrawal of consent and protocol deviation.

As per Data Monitoring Committee recommendation (03-Jun-2015), implemented through protocol amendment 3 (issued on 06-May-2016), remaining participants entered the open-label part of the study, where participants in the placebo arm were allowed to crossover to open-label treatment with everolimus

1.Primary Outcome
Title Probability of Participants Remaining Event-Free in Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Based on Central Radiology Assessment
Hide Description

PFS is defined as the time from randomization to the date of the first documented tumor progression or death from any cause, whichever comes first.

Progression was defined using modified RECIST 1.0 and as per central radiology assessment as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameter of all measured target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum of diameter of all target lesions recorded at or after baseline. Progression was assessed by cat scan (CT) and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

For participants who had not progressed or died at the analysis cut-off date, PFS was censored at the date of the last adequate tumor evaluation date. An adequate tumour assessment is a tumour assessment with an overall response other than unknown.

The percentage event-free probability estimate is the estimated probability that a patient will remain event-free in PFS up to the specified time point.

Time Frame From date of randomization to progression or death, whichever comes first, assessed up to 27 months

Title Time to Definitive Deterioration in Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - General (FACT-G) Questionnaire Total Score
Hide Description

FACT-G is a self-assessed health-related quality of life questionnaire. The questionnaire is comprised of 27 questions examining physical, social/family, emotional, and functional well-being. Participants responded to the items on a five-point scale, ranging from 0: "Not at all" to 4: "Very much." The total score ranges from 0 to 108, with higher scores indicating a better patient-reported outcome/quality of life.

Definitive deterioration is defined as a decrease in the total score by at least 7 points compared to baseline with no further improvement.

Death was considered as worsening of the FACT-G total score if it occurred close to the last available assessment, where "close" was defined as twice the planned period between two assessments. Patients without definitive worsening prior to analysis cut-off or prior to start of another anticancer therapy were censored at the date of their last assessment.

Time Frame From randomization to definitive deterioration of FACT-G total score, assessed up to approximately 3 years

8.Secondary Outcome
Title Time to Definitive Deterioration in World Health Organization (WHO) Performance Status (PS) Change
Hide Description WHO PS is a scale rated from 0 (fully active) to 5 (death) by a healthcare professional to assess the overall status of a patient: a lower score represents a higher ability to perform daily tasks. Deterioration is defined as an increase of at least one point compared to baseline. Deterioration is considered definitive if no improvements in the WHO PS status is observed at a subsequent time of measurement during the treatment period following the time point where the deterioration is observed. Death was considered as worsening of the WHO PS if it occurred close to the last available assessment, where "close" was defined as twice the planned period between two assessments. Patients without definitive worsening prior to analysis cut-off or prior to start of another anticancer therapy were censored at the date of their last assessment.
Time Frame From randomization to definitive deterioration of WHO performance status, assessed up to approximately 3 years

9.Secondary Outcome
Title Pharmacokinetics (PK): Predose Concentration (Cmin) of Everolimus at Day 29
Hide Description A pre-dose blood sample at day 29 was collected to determine the exposure of everolimus at the steady-state pre-dose concentration (Cmin). Cmin is provided for participants randomized to everolimus+BSC who received 10mg of everolimus daily and also for participants randomized to everolimus+BSC who received 5mg of everolimus daily which was required for a number of participants in the study experiencing adverse events requiring dose modifications
Time Frame Pre-dose at Day 29.
Hide Outcome Measure Data
Hide Analysis Population Description
All patients who received at least one dose of the study drug with evaluable blood samples for this endpoint.
Arm/Group Title Everolimus + BSC
Hide Arm/Group Description:
Participants received everolimus 10 mg once daily BSC throughout the study

10.Post-Hoc Outcome
Title All Collected Deaths
Hide Description

Deaths on-treatment were collected from first dose of study treatment until end of study treatment plus 30 days post treatment, up to maximum duration of approximately 8 years.

Total Deaths were collected from first dose of study treatment until end of post-treatment survival follow, up to maximum duration of approximately 8 years.

Time Frame On-treatment deaths: up to approximately 8 years. All deaths: up to approximately 8 years
Hide Outcome Measure Data
Hide Analysis Population Description
The safety set consists of all participants who received at least one dose of the study drug and had at least one post-baseline safety evaluation. Participants were analyzed according to treatment actually received: One participant randomized to everolimus arm received only placebo and therefore, appears in the placebo arm in the safety set
Arm/Group Title Everolimus + BSC (Throughout the Study) Everolimus +BSC (Crossover) Everolimus+BSC (All) Placebo + BSC (Blinded Period)
Hide Arm/Group Description:
Participants received everolimus 10 mg once daily BSC throughout the study
Participants who crossed over from placebo arm (blinded period) to open-label treatment with everolimus 10mg once daily plus BSC
All participants who received everolimus 10 mg once daily plus BSC (including those who received everolimus+BSC from start to end of the study and those who received everolimus+BSC after crossover)
Participants received matching placebo once daily plus BSC during the blinded period

Total deaths 126 1 127 57
Time Frame Adverse events and all-cause mortality were collected from date of first dose of study treatment until end of study treatment plus 30 days post treatment, assessed up to a maximum duration of approximately 8 years
Adverse Event Reporting Description Any sign or symptom that occurs during the study treatment plus the 30 days post treatment. The safety set consists of all participants who received at least one dose of the study drug and had at least one post-baseline safety evaluation. Participants were analyzed according to treatment actually received: One participant randomized to everolimus arm received only placebo and therefore, appears in the placebo arm in the safety set
