Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Arm A

Drug: Eribulin
Administration of eribulin mesylate at a dose of 1.4 mg/m2 i.v. over 2 to 5 minutes on Days 1 and Day 8 of every cycle, where the duration of each cycle is 21 days.

Active Comparator: Arm B

Drug: TPC -Vinorelbine,Gemcitabine,Docetaxel, and Pemetrexed
Vinorelbine 30 mg/m2 i.v. on Day 1, every 7 days Gemcitabine 1250 mg/m2 i.v. on Days 1 and 8, every 21 days Docetaxel 75 mg/m2 i.v. on Day 1 every 21 days Pemetrexed 500 mg/m2 i.v. on Day 1 every 21 days (nonsquamous histology only).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Overall Survival (OS) [Randomization (Day 1) until date of death from any cause, or 37 months]

    The OS was defined as the time in months from the date of randomization to the date of death, regardless of cause. In the absence of confirmation of death, the participants were censored either at the date that participant was last known to be alive or the date of study cut-off, whichever was earlier. The two treatment arms were compared using the log-rank test, stratified by histology, TPC option, and geographic region; and the treatment difference between eribulin mesylate and TPC was tested at a significance level of 0.05 (2-sided). Kaplan-Meier (K-M) survival probabilities for each arm were plotted over time. The treatment effect was estimated by fitting a Cox Proportional Hazards model to the OS times including treatment arm as a factor and histology, TPC option and geographic region as strata.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Progression Free Survival (PFS) by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) [Randomization (Day 1) until date of disease progression or death (whichever occurred first), or 37 months]

    PFS was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of first documentation of disease progression, or date of death, whichever occurred first. The difference in PFS (based on the tumor response evaluation as determined by the investigator) between eribulin mesylate and TPC was evaluated using the log rank test, stratified by histology, TPC option, and geographic region, tested at an alpha level of 0.05 (2-sided). PFS censoring rules will be defined in the SAP and follow Federal Department of Agriculture (FDA) guidance.

  2. Objective Response Rate (ORR) [Randomization (Day 1) to CR or PR]

    The ORR was defined as the proportion of participants with best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) per RECIST criteria. The ORR was estimated by study arm based on the tumor response evaluation as determined by the investigator, according to RECIST 1.1. Participants with unknown response were treated as non-responders. The statistical difference in ORR between treatment arms was evaluated using the Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel (CMH) chi-square test with histology, TPC option, and geographic region as strata, tested at an alpha level of 0.05 (2-sided). The 95 percent confidence interval (CI) was calculated using Clopper Pearson method.

Adverse Events

Time Frame Treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) were collected from the first dose of study treatment to thirty days after final dose of study medication. Participants were followed for approximately 37 months.
Adverse Event Reporting Description Safety analysis set included all randomized participants who received at least one dose of study treatment. AEs were graded on a 5-point scale according to Common Terminology for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0. All AEs graded 4 or 5 were considered serious.
