- Disease Control Rate (DCR) [ Time Frame: From first dose up to approximately 14 months ]
Disease Control Rate (DCR) is defined as the percentage of participants who achieve a confirmed best response of complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) for at least 6 months after first treatment dose per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 criteria.
Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to < 10 mm.
Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.
Stable Disease (SD): Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for progressive disease (PD), taking as reference the smallest sum diameters while on study.
- Overall Survival (OS) [ Time Frame: From first dose to the date of death from any cause (up to approximately 14 months) ]Overall Survival (OS) is defined as the time from first dose to the date of death from any cause. For participants that are alive, their survival time will be censored at the date of last contact ("last known alive date"). OS will be censored for participants at the date of first dose if they were treated but had no follow-up.
- Overall Response Rate (ORR) [ Time Frame: From first dose and the date of objectively documented progression criteria or the date of subsequent therapy, whichever occurs first (up to approximately 14 months) ]
Overall Response Rate (ORR) is defined as the percentage of participants who achieve a best response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 criteria.
Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to < 10 mm.
Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.
- Duration of Response (DOR) [ Time Frame: From first dose to the date of the first documented progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first (up to approximately 14 months) ]
Duration of Response (DOR) is defined as the time between the date of first documented response (complete response (CR) or partial response (PR)) to the date of the first documented progression, per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 criteria, or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.
Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to < 10 mm.
Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.
- Progression Free Survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: From first dose to the first date of documented progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first (up to approximately 14 months) ]Progression Free Survival (PFS) is defined as the time between the date of first dose and the first date of documented progression, as per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 criteria, or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. Progression is defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. (Note: the appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progression).
- Time to Objective Response (TTR) [ Time Frame: From first dose to the first confirmed documented response (up to approximately 14 months) ]
Time to Objective Response (TTR) is defined as the time between the date of the first dose and the first confirmed documented response (complete response (CR) or partial response (PR)) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 criteria.
Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to < 10 mm.
Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.
- The Number of Participants Experiencing Adverse Events (AEs) [ Time Frame: From first dose and 100 days after lost dose (up to approximately 14 months) ]The number of participants with any grade adverse events (AEs). An AE is defined as any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a preexisting medical condition in a clinical investigation participant administered study treatment and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment.
