    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Overall Survival [From the time of Randomization until the date of death due to any cause (up to 195 weeks)]

      Overall survival is defined as the time from randomization until the date of death due to any cause. The date of last contact was used for those participants who had not died or were lost to follow-up. These participants were classified as having been censored.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Six-month Survival [Month 6]

      Six-month survival is defined as the percentage of participants alive at 6 months following randomization. The date of last contact was used for those participants who had not died or were lost to follow-up. These participants were classified as having been censored.

    2. Number of Participants With a Complete Response (CR) or a Partial Response (PR) (Central Nervous System [CNS]-Radiologic) [From the time of Randomization until the time of CR or PR (up to 75 weeks)]

      The number of participants achieving either a CR or PR, per World Health Organization (WHO) Criteria, in the CNS was assessed. CR is defined as the complete disappearance of all known measurable (Must be accurately measured in >=1 dimension) and nonmeasurable disease, without clinical, laboratory, or radiological evidence of recurrence for at least 4 weeks. CR may have been defined in participants with measurable and/or non-measurable disease at Screening. PR is defined as at least a 50% decrease in the sum of the products of the greatest length and perpendicular width of all measurable disease with no clear increase in nonmeasurable disease in participants without measurable disease. In both cases, there must have been no appearance of new disease, and no clinical, laboratory, or radiological evidence of disease progression for at least 4 weeks. Assessment of response was performed by the investigator and was based on unconfirmed responses.

    3. Time to Response (TTR) (CNS-radiologic) [From the time of Randomization until the first documented evidence of CR or PR (up to 75 weeks)]

      TTR is defined as the time from Randomization until the first documented evidence of CR or PR in the CNS. CR is defined as the complete disappearance of all known measurable (Must be accurately measured in >=1 dimension) and nonmeasurable disease, without clinical, laboratory, or radiological evidence of recurrence for at least 4 weeks. CR may have been defined in participants with measurable and/or non-measurable disease at Screening. PR is defined as at least a 50% decrease in the sum of the products of the greatest length and perpendicular width of all measurable disease with no clear increase in nonmeasurable disease in participants without measurable disease. In both cases, there must have been no appearance of new disease, and no clinical, laboratory, or radiological evidence of disease progression for at least 4 weeks. Assessment of response was performed by the investigator and was based on unconfirmed responses.

    4. Time to Progression (TTP) (CNS-radiologic) [From the time of Randomization until the first documented sign of disease progression (up to 75 weeks)]

      TTP is defined as the time from Randomization until the first documented sign of disease progression in the CNS. Progressive disease (PD) is defined as an increase >=25% in any measurable lesion or, in participants with non-measurable disease only, an estimation of an increase >=25%. In both cases, determination of progression included the appearance of any new lesions, or signification worsening of conditions presumed to be related to malignancy. Participants with clinical or laboratory evidence of possible disease progression were to be evaluated radiologically. TTP was analyzed with censoring for extended loss to follow-up to account for two or more missed assessments before a TTP event. The date of the last adequate CNS assessment before extended loss to follow-up was used for censored participants.

    5. Time to Progression (TTP) (All Sites of Disease-radiologic) [From the time of Randomization until the first documented sign of disease progression (up to 75 weeks)]

      TTP is defined as the time from Randomization until the first documented sign of disease progression in all sites of disease. Progressive disease (PD) is defined as an increase >=25% in any measurable lesion or, in participants with non-measurable disease only, an estimation of an increase >=25%. In both cases, determination of progression included the appearance of any new lesions, or signification worsening of conditions presumed to be related to malignancy. Participants with clinical or laboratory evidence of possible disease progression were to be evaluated radiologically. TTP was analyzed with censoring for extended loss to follow-up to account for two or more missed assessments before a TTP event. The date of the last adequate CNS assessment before extended loss to follow-up was used for censored participants.

    Title Number of Participants With a Complete Response (CR) or a Partial Response (PR) (Central Nervous System [CNS]-Radiologic)
    Description The number of participants achieving either a CR or PR, per World Health Organization (WHO) Criteria, in the CNS was assessed. CR is defined as the complete disappearance of all known measurable (Must be accurately measured in >=1 dimension) and nonmeasurable disease, without clinical, laboratory, or radiological evidence of recurrence for at least 4 weeks. CR may have been defined in participants with measurable and/or non-measurable disease at Screening. PR is defined as at least a 50% decrease in the sum of the products of the greatest length and perpendicular width of all measurable disease with no clear increase in nonmeasurable disease in participants without measurable disease. In both cases, there must have been no appearance of new disease, and no clinical, laboratory, or radiological evidence of disease progression for at least 4 weeks. Assessment of response was performed by the investigator and was based on unconfirmed responses.

    Title Time to Response (TTR) (CNS-radiologic)
    Description TTR is defined as the time from Randomization until the first documented evidence of CR or PR in the CNS. CR is defined as the complete disappearance of all known measurable (Must be accurately measured in >=1 dimension) and nonmeasurable disease, without clinical, laboratory, or radiological evidence of recurrence for at least 4 weeks. CR may have been defined in participants with measurable and/or non-measurable disease at Screening. PR is defined as at least a 50% decrease in the sum of the products of the greatest length and perpendicular width of all measurable disease with no clear increase in nonmeasurable disease in participants without measurable disease.

    Title Time to Progression (TTP) (CNS-radiologic)
    Description TTP is defined as the time from Randomization until the first documented sign of disease progression in the CNS. Progressive disease (PD) is defined as an increase >=25% in any measurable lesion or, in participants with non-measurable disease only, an estimation of an increase >=25%. In both cases, determination of progression included the appearance of any new lesions, or signification worsening of conditions presumed to be related to malignancy. Participants with clinical or laboratory evidence of possible disease progression were to be evaluated radiologically. TTP was analyzed with censoring for extended loss to follow-up to account for two or more missed assessments before a TTP event. The date of the last adequate CNS assessment before extended loss to follow-up was used for censored participants.

    Title Number of Participants With the Indicated Investigator Assessment for the Neurological Sign and Symptom of Level of Consciousness at Baseline, Month 1, and Month 3
    Description The investigator assessed participants for the neurological sign and symptom of level of consciousness and assigned each participant to one of the following categories: normal; somnolence or sedation not interfering with function (not intefering); somnolence or sedation interfering with function, but not activities of daily living (ADLs) (interfering); obtundation or stupor, difficult to arouse, inteferring with ADLs (obtundation or stupor); coma.
    Time Frame Baseline, Month 1, and Month 3

    Outcome Measure Data

    Analysis Population Description
    ITT Population. Only those participants who were assessed at the indicated time point were analyzed. If no data are presented for a particular status at a particular time point, then no participants had that status at that time point.
    Arm/Group Title Chemoradiation: Topotecan Plus WBRT Radiation: WBRT Alone
    Arm/Group Description Participants received topotecan 1.1 milligrams per meters squared per day (mg/m2/day), orally followed approximately 2 hours later by whole-brain radiation therapy (WBRT) 3 Gray (Gy)/day to midline over the course of 10 days. After a 2-week washout period, participants completing chemoradiation and willing to participate in the Continuation Phase of the study received oral topotecan 2.3 mg/m2/day for 5 days, every 21 days, as monotherapy provided the baseline hematologic requirements were met. Monotherapy continued until disease progression or discontinuation. Chemoradiation participants choosing not to participate in the Continuation Phase may have received other chemotherapies or best supportive care, as determined by the investigator. Participants received WBRT 3 Gy/day for 10 days. Participants may have received other chemotherapies or best supportive care, as determined by the investigator.

    Title Number of Participants With the Indicated Investigator Assessment for the Neurological Sign and Symptom of Headache at Baseline, Month 1, and Month 3
    Description The investigator (per Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events [CTCAE], version 3.0) assessed participants for headache and assigned each participant to one of the following categories: absent, Grade (G) 1, G 2, G 3, G 4, and G 5. Grade refers to the severity of the AE. The CTCAE displays G 1 through 5 with unique clinical descriptions of severity for each AE based on this general guideline: G 1: mild, asymptomatic or mild symptoms, clinical or diagnostic observations only, intervention not indicated; G 2: moderate, minimal, local or noninvasive intervention indicated, limiting age-appropriate instrumental ADL; G 3: severe or medically significant but not immediately life-threatening, hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization indicated, disabling, limiting self care ADL; G 4: life-threatening consequences, urgent intervention indicated; G 5: death related to AE.

    Arm/Group Title Chemoradiation: Topotecan Plus WBRT Radiation: WBRT Alone
    Arm/Group Description Participants received topotecan 1.1 milligrams per meters squared per day (mg/m2/day), orally followed approximately 2 hours later by whole-brain radiation therapy (WBRT) 3 Gray (Gy)/day to midline over the course of 10 days. After a 2-week washout period, participants completing chemoradiation and willing to participate in the Continuation Phase of the study received oral topotecan 2.3 mg/m2/day for 5 days, every 21 days, as monotherapy provided the baseline hematologic requirements were met. Monotherapy continued until disease progression or discontinuation. Chemoradiation participants choosing not to participate in the Continuation Phase may have received other chemotherapies or best supportive care, as determined by the investigator. Participants received WBRT 3 Gy/day for 10 days. Participants may have received other chemotherapies or best supportive care, as determined by the investigator.

    Arm/Group Title Chemoradiation: Topotecan Plus WBRT Radiation: WBRT Alone
    Arm/Group Description Participants received topotecan 1.1 milligrams per meters squared per day (mg/m2/day), orally followed approximately 2 hours later by whole-brain radiation therapy (WBRT) 3 Gray (Gy)/day to midline over the course of 10 days. After a 2-week washout period, participants completing chemoradiation and willing to participate in the Continuation Phase of the study received oral topotecan 2.3 mg/m2/day for 5 days, every 21 days, as monotherapy provided the baseline hematologic requirements were met. Monotherapy continued until disease progression or discontinuation. Chemoradiation participants choosing not to participate in the Continuation Phase may have received other chemotherapies or best supportive care, as determined by the investigator. Participants received WBRT 3 Gy/day for 10 days. Participants may have received other chemotherapies or best supportive care, as determined by the investigator.

    Arm/Group Title Chemoradiation: Topotecan Plus WBRT Radiation: WBRT Alone
    Arm/Group Description Participants received topotecan 1.1 milligrams per meters squared per day (mg/m2/day), orally followed approximately 2 hours later by whole-brain radiation therapy (WBRT) 3 Gray (Gy)/day to midline over the course of 10 days. After a 2-week washout period, participants completing chemoradiation and willing to participate in the Continuation Phase of the study received oral topotecan 2.3 mg/m2/day for 5 days, every 21 days, as monotherapy provided the baseline hematologic requirements were met. Monotherapy continued until disease progression or discontinuation. Chemoradiation participants choosing not to participate in the Continuation Phase may have received other chemotherapies or best supportive care, as determined by the investigator. Participants received WBRT 3 Gy/day for 10 days. Participants may have received other chemotherapies or best supportive care, as determined by the investigator.

    31. Secondary Outcome
    Title Number of Participants Who Died or Progressed
    Description Disease-related events were measured as the number of participants who died or progressed. Progressive disease (PD) is defined as an increase >=25% in any measurable lesion or, in participants with non-measurable disease only, an estimation of an increase >=25%. In both cases, determination of progression included the appearance of any new lesions, or signification worsening of conditions presumed to be related to malignancy. Participants with clinical or laboratory evidence of possible disease progression were to be evaluated radiologically. Data were analyzed with censoring for extended loss to follow-up to account for two or more missed assessments before an event. The date of the last adequate CNS assessment before extended loss to follow-up was used for censored participants.
    Time Frame From Randomization until the last clinic visit associated with the study, up until 35 days after the start of the last course of treatment (up to 75 weeks)
