    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Progression Free Survival (PFS) in Part 2 of Study [Part 2 Baseline to the end of the study (up to 22 months)]

      Progression Free Survival (PFS) was defined as the time from randomization to the first documented disease progression based on the independent central review board's assessment using RECIST 1.1 or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Progression Free Survival (PFS) in Part 1 of Study [Part 1 Baseline to the end of the study (up to 22 months)]

      Progression Free Survival (PFS) was defined as the time from randomization to the first documented disease progression based on the independent central review board's assessment using RECIST 1.1 or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first.

    2. Overall Survival (OS) [Baseline to the end of the study (up to 22 months)]

      OS was defined as the time from the date of informed consent (Part 1) or date of randomization (Part 2) to death due to any cause or the date of last known alive.

    3. Time to Treatment Failure (TTF) [Baseline to the end of the study (up to 22 months)]

      TTF was defined as the time from randomization to disease progression according to RECIST 1.1, death due to any cause, discontinuation of treatment due to toxicity, or for symptomatic deterioration, or start of another anticancer therapy

    4. Objective Response Rate (ORR) [Baseline to the end of the study (up to 22 months)]

      ORR was defined as the proportion of participants with a best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR)

    5. Disease Control Rate (DCR) [Baseline to the end of the study (up to 22 months)]

      DCR was defined as the proportion of participants with a best overall response of complete response (CR); partial response (PR); or stable disease (SD) lasting >=24 weeks

    6. Tumor Marker Response [Baseline, every 6 weeks and 37 days post last visit (up to 22 months)]

      Tumor marker response was defined as decrease of 50% of cancer antigen (CA)-19-9 in relation to the baseline level at least once during the treatment period. Tumor marker response evaluable population consist of participants who have elevated CA-19-9 level (greater than [<] 30 international unit [IU] / millilitre [ml]) at baseline and at least one post baseline CA-19-9 assessment.

    7. Change From Baseline in European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30) Scores [Baseline, Day 1 of Cycle 4, 7, 10, 13, and 16; and 37 days post last visit (up to 22 months)]

      The EORTC-QLQC30 is a reliable and valid measure of the quality of life of cancer participants in multicultural clinical research settings. It incorporates nine multi-item scales: five functional scales (physical [PFS], role [RFS], cognitive [CFS], emotional [EFS], and social [SFS]); three symptom scales (fatigue [FSS], pain [PSS], and nausea and vomiting [NVSS]); and a global health status (GHS) and quality-of-life scale. Several single-item symptom measures are also included. All scales and single-item measures range=0 to 100. High score for a functional scale=high/healthy level of functioning. High score for global health status/QoL=high QoL. High score for symptom scale/single item=high level of symptomatology/problems.
