Pre-Assignment Details

Significant events and approaches for the overall study following participant enrollment, but prior to group assignment
Of 556 enrolled participants, 137 failed screening, 209 were randomized to receive sorafenib, 210 were randomized to placebo. One participant was never treated (placebo) and 2 were randomized by mistake (sorafenib) then re-randomized with different subject numbers. Therefore, 207 participants received sorafenib and 209 received placebo.

Reporting Groups

	Description
DB Sorafenib First, Then Option of OL Sorafenib Treatment	Double-blind period: Participants received 2 tablets of Sorafenib (2×200 mg) orally twice daily (12 hours apart without food), 28 days comprise a cycle. Open-label (OL) period: Participants received 2 tablets of Sorafenib (2×200 mg) orally twice daily (12 hours apart without food), 28 days comprise a cycle.
DB Placebo First, Then Option of OL Sorafenib Treatment	Double-blind period: participants received matching placebo tablets orally twice daily, 28 days comprised a cycle. Open-label (OL) period: participants on placebo who switched to sorafenib, received sorafenib 400 mg (2 x 200 mg) orally twice daily, 28 days comprise a cycle.
