Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- PFS[Progression-Free Survival] [up to 2 year]
Time from randomization to first radiographic disease progression (RECIST 1.1 criteria) or death, whichever occurs first.

- OS[Overall Survival] [up to 2 year]

- ORR[Objective Response Rate] [up to 1 year]

- DCR[Disease Control Rate] [up to 1 year]
Proportion of subjects in the analysis population who achieved complete response (CR) , partial response (PR) or stable diease(SD) based on RECIST 1.1 criteria.
- TTR[Time to response] [up to 1 year]
Time from randomization to firstly achieve CR or PR based on RECIST 1.1 criteria.
- DoR[Duration of response] [up to 2 year]
For subjects who achieved remission, the time from first achieving CR or PR to disease progression or death, whichever occurred earlier.
- AEs[Adverse events] [up to 2 year]
The incidence and severity of adverse events (AE) and serious adverse events (SAE) were determined according to NCI-CTCAE v5.0 criteria.
