- Percentage of Participants Achieving Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) According to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Version 1.0 Guidelines [ Time Frame: Baseline (BL); Day 1 of Weeks 7, 13, 19, 25, 37, and 52, at the last administration of study treatment, every 24 weeks thereafter until disease progression for up to 6 months after the last participant was recruited ]CR was defined for target lesions (TLs) as the disappearance of all lesions, and for nontarget lesions (NTLs) as the disappearance of all nontarget nonmeasurable lesions. PR was defined for TLs as at least a 30 percent (%) decrease from baseline (BL) in the sum of longest diameter (SLD) of TLs. 95% confidence interval for one-sample binomial using Pearson-Clopper method.
- Duration of Response - Percentage of Participants With Progressive Disease or Death [ Time Frame: BL, Day 1 of Weeks 7, 13, 19, 25, 37, and 52, at the last administration of study treatment, every 24 weeks thereafter until disease progression for up to 6 months after the last participant was recruited ]Duration of response was defined as the time from first confirmed CR or PR until death or progressive disease (PD). For TLs, PD was defined as at least a 20% increase in the SLD of the TL, taking as reference the smallest SLD recorded since the beginning of treatment or the appearance of one or more new lesions. For NTLs, PD was defined as the appearance of one or more new lesions or unequivocal progression of existing non target non-measurable lesions. Participants were censored at the date of the last tumor assessment.
- Duration of Response [ Time Frame: BL, Day 1 of Weeks 7, 13, 19, 25, 37, and 52, at the last administration of study treatment, every 24 weeks thereafter until disease progression for up to 6 months after the last participant was recruited ]The time, in months, from when the response (CR or PR) was first noted until the date of documented PD, death, or withdrawal, whichever occurred first. Participants were censored at the date of the last tumor assessment.
- Progression-free Survival (PFS) - Percentage of Participants With Progressive Disease [ Time Frame: BL, Day 1 of Weeks 7, 13, 19, 25, 37, and 52, at the last administration of study treatment, every 24 weeks thereafter until disease progression for up to 6 months after the last participant was recruited ]PFS was defined as the time from day of first study drug infusion until death or PD. Participants were censored at the date of the last tumor assessment.
- Progression-Free Survival [ Time Frame: BL, Day 1 of Weeks 7, 13, 19, 25, 37, and 52, at the last administration of study treatment, every 24 weeks thereafter until disease progression for up to 6 months after the last participant was recruited ]The time, in months, from BL to PFS event.
- Percentage of Participants With Treatment Failure [ Time Frame: BL, Day 1 of Weeks 7, 13, 19, 25, 37, and 52, at the last administration of study treatment, every 24 weeks thereafter until disease progression for up to 6 months after the last participant was recruited ]Treatment failure was defined as the time from first study drug infusion to failure. Failure was defined as any of the following: PD, death, withdrawal due to adverse event (AE) or lab abnormality, or refusal of treatment. Participants were censored at the last date recorded in the case report form (CRF) or the date of withdrawal.
- Time to Treatment Failure [ Time Frame: BL, Day 1 of Weeks 7, 13, 19, 25, 37, and 52, at the last administration of study treatment, every 24 weeks thereafter until disease progression for up to 6 months after the last participant was recruited ]The time, in months, from BL to treatment failure.
- Percentage of Participants With Clinical Benefit According to RECIST Guidelines [ Time Frame: BL, Day 1 of Weeks 7, 13, 19, 25, 37, and 52, at the last administration of study treatment, every 24 weeks thereafter until disease progression for up to 6 months after the last participant was recruited ]Clinical benefit was defined as stable disease (SD) for 6 months or longer, or a confirmed overall response of CR or PR. For TLs, SD was defined as neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest SLD since the beginning of treatment. For NTLs, SD was synonymous with incomplete response and defined as the persistence of one or more NTLs and/or maintenance of tumor marker level above the normal limits.
- Overall Survival - Percentage of Participants Who Died [ Time Frame: BL, Day 1 of Weeks 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 25, 37, and 5 at the last administration of study treatment, every 24 weeks thereafter until disease progression or death, yearly thereafter up to 2 years after cessation of recruitment ]OS was defined as the time from the date of enrollment to the date of death due to any cause. Participants were censored at the last date recorded in the CRF.
- Overall Survival [ Time Frame: BL, Day 1 of Weeks 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 25, 37, and 52 at the last administration of study treatment, every 24 weeks thereafter until disease progression or death, yearly thereafter up to 2 years after cessation of recruitment ]The time, in months, from BL to death due to any cause.
