Baseline; 4 hours post-dose on C1D21	No
Secondary	Number of Participants With Objective Response	Number of participants with objective response based on assessment of confirmed complete response (CR) or confirmed partial response (PR) according to response evaluation criteria in solid tumors version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1). Confirmed responses are those that persist on repeat imaging study >=4 weeks after initial documentation of response. CR was defined as complete disappearance of all target lesions and non-target disease, with the exception of nodal disease. All nodes, both target and non-target, must decrease to normal (short axis <10 mm). No new lesions. PR was defined as >=30% decrease under baseline of the sum of diameters of all target lesions. The short axis was used in the sum for target nodes, while the longest diameter was used in the sum for all other target lesions. No unequivocal progression of non-target disease. No new lesions.	Baseline, prior to Day 1 of Cycle every odd-numbered cycle or when progressive disease was suspected	No
