      A treatment-related adverse event was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to sunitinib malate in a participant who received sunitinib malate. Relatedness to sunitinib malate was assessed by the investigator and sponsor (Pfizer Japan Inc.).

    2. Objective Response Rate [MAX 2 Years]

      Percentage of participants with objective response 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 lesion; Overall Response(OR) = CR + PR. The result was presented along with the corresponding exact 2-sided 95% confidence interval (CI).

    3. Number of Participants With Treatment-Related Adverse Events Grade 3 or Higher in Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) [MAX 2 Years]

      A treatment-related adverse event was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to sunitinib malate in a participant who received sunitinib malate. Relatedness to sunitinib malate was assessed by the investigator and sponsor (Pfizer Japan Inc.). The severity for each adverse event was assessed according to CTCAE as follows: grade 3, severe or medically significant but not immediately life-threatening, hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization indicated, or disabling; grade 4, life-threatening consequences or urgent intervention indicated; grade 5, death related to adverse event.
