| Primary | Phase II: Assess the anti-neoplastic activity, as determined by overall response rate (complete plus partial responses) according to the RECIST criteria. | indeterminate | No | |
| Primary | Phase III: Evaluate and compare the survival time of the two treatment groups, as selected in Phase II. | Indeterminate | No | |
| Secondary | Phase III: Assess the overall response rate | indeterminate | No | |
| Secondary | Asses the degree of clinical benefit defined as the proportion of patients experiencing complete and partial responses as well as stable disease. | indeterminate | No | |
| Secondary | Determine the duration of response. | indeterminate | No | |
| Secondary | Determine the time to progression | indeterminate | No | |
| Secondary | Assess the pharmacokinetic profile and immunopharmacodynamic response to CPG 7909 Injection alone or in combination with DTIC, or DTIC alone (immunopharmacodynamic response only). | indeterminate | No | |
