    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Overall Survival (OS) [Up to 45 months]

      The primary analysis of OS is defined as the time from randomization to death from any cause. The analysis was based on a second planned interim analysis prespecified to be performed at approximately the 75% information fraction (ie, at approximately 466 deaths). The data cutoff date for this event-driven analysis in the Intent to Treat (ITT) population was 01 June 2017. Median OS was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier estimates.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Progression-Free Survival (PFS) [Up to 45 months]

      Duration of PFS is defined as the time of randomization to the earlier of the following events, progressive disease as determined by Investigator (per RECIST 1.0, which is defined by a ≥ 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions from baseline) or death due to any cause. A Kaplan- Meier analysis was performed to estimate the median duration.

    2. Objective Response Rate (ORR) [ORR is measured by radiologic assessment every 8 weeks after randomization until disease progression or discontinuation of study treatment (up to 45 months)]

      Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR.
