- Objective Response Rate (ORR) as Evaluated by Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) [ Time Frame: 8 weeks after study drug begins & and every 8 wks thereafter until discontinuation of study drug ( maximum treatment period of 309 days (44 weeks) ]Percentage of participants with complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST), version 1.0 (Therasse et al. Natl Cancer Inst 92 (2000) pp205-216).
- Disease Control Rate (DCR) [ Time Frame: 8 weeks after study drug begins & every 8 weeks thereafter until discontinuation of the study ( maximum treatment period of 309 days (44 weeks) ]Percentage of participants with Complete Response (CR), Partial Response (PR), or stable disease (SD) lasting at least 8 weeks from the first administration of study drug. RECIST guidelines:(Response evaluation criteria in solid tumors, version 1.0).

- Overall Survival (OS) [ Time Frame: Time from the first administration of study drug to disease progression or death (maximum treatment period of 309 days (44 weeks) ]Time in weeks from the first administration of study drug to death.
