Primary | Overall Survival | Defined as the time from date of randomization to death due to any cause. Patients without documented death at the time of the final analysis will be censored at the date of the last follow-up. | Start of treatment to death | No |
Secondary | Progression Free Survival | Defined as the time from randomization to the first documented disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. Disease progression is defined as at least a 20% increase in sum of the longest diameter of all target lesions, the appearance of a new lesion, or an increase in non-target lesions. | Start of treatment to disease progression or death | No |
Secondary | Number of Participants Who Had a Disease Response to Treatment | Response to treatment is defined as a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) to treatment. Confirmation of response required a second assessment performed at least 4 weeks after the initial assessment. (PR is defined as at least a 30% reduction in sum of the longest diameter of all target lesions and no increase in non-target lesions). | Every 42 days from start of treatment until disease response | No |
