Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. the Incidence of Highgrade (CTCAE v4.0 Grade 3 or Higher), Treatment Related,Select Adverse Events. [Up to 2 years]

    The number of participants who reported high-grade (CTCAE v4.0 Grade 3 or higher), treatment-related, select AEs (pulmonary,gastrointestinal, skin, renal, hepatic, endocrine) were summarized using the all treated analysis set by system organ class and Medical Dictionary for Regulatory (MedDRA) preferred term.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. The Incidence of All High-grade (Grades 3 and Higher), Select Adverse Events [Up to 2 years]

    The number of Participants who reported high-grade (CTCAE v4.0 Grade 3 or higher), select AEs were summarized using the all treated analysis set by system organ class and MedDRA preferred term.

  2. Median Time to Onset (Grades 3-4) of Select Adverse Events [Up to 2 years.]

    Select AEs were summarized according to their incidence as well as their time to onset.

  3. Median Time to Resolution (Grades 3-4) of Select Adverse Events [Up to 2 years]

    Select AEs were summarized according to their incidence as well as their time to resolution

  4. Overall Survival [Up to 4 years]

    The time from first dosing date to the date of death.
