- Progression Free Survival [ Time Frame: RECIST performed at screening and every 8 weeks through to progression or discontinuation whichever is earliest. ]Number of months from randomisation until progressive disease based on RECIST (progression of target lesions, clear progression of existing non-target lesions or the appearance of one or more new lesions) or death in the absence of progression.
- Objective Response Rate [ Time Frame: RECIST performed at screening and every 8 weeks through to progression or discontinuation whichever is earliest. ]
Best objective tumour response (based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST)) during the study for patients with measurable disease. Best objective tumour response defined as:
Complete Response (CR) Disappearance of all target lesions Partial response (PR) At least a 30% decrease in the sum of longest diameters (LDs) of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of LDs.
Progression (PD) At least a 20% increase in the sum of LDs of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum of LDs since treatment started (including the baseline sum of LDs) and at least 5 mm increase.
Stable disease (SD) Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD
- Duration of Response [ Time Frame: Every 8 weeks until progression or discontinuation ]Number of days from date of response (complete/partial based on RECIST) to date of progression
- Clinical Benefit Rate [ Time Frame: Every 8 weeks until progression or discontinuation ]
Clinical Benefit is defined as the number of patients having a best overall tumour response of CR/PR or SD for ≥6 months.
The Clinical Benefit rate is defined as the number of responders divided by the number in the Intention-to-treat (ITT) analysis set: responder=overall best response of complete response (CR)/partial response (PR) or stable disease (SD) for at least 6 months (calculated from the date of randomisation) as defined by RECIST criteria at any point prior to the data cut-off.
- Duration of Clinical Benefit [ Time Frame: Every 8 weeks until progression or discontinuation ]Number of days from date of clinical benefit to date of progression. Clinical benefit is defined as having a best overall tumour response of CR/PR or SD for ≥6 months.
