- Objective Response Rate (ORR) [ Time Frame: Approximately 24 months. ]The ORR is the proportion of subjects whose best response rate (BOR) is confirmed CR or confirmed PR radiographically according to RECISTv1.1. Where BOR is defined as the best investigator-assessed confirmed response during the time period.
