- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Objective Response (ORR) The planned data cut-off for this study was when all patients, except withdrawals, had been followed up for at least 24 weeks. Patients received treatment up to approximately 2 years. Objective response rate was defined as percentage of patients with either complete response (CR - disappearance of all target lesions) or partial response (PR - at least 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions). All patients were to be followed up every 12 weeks for progression, defined by response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST v1.1).
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Time to Progression (TTP) The planned data cut-off for this study was when all patients, except withdrawals, had been followed up for at least 24 weeks. Patients received treatment up to approximately 2 years. Time from randomisation until objective disease progression or death (in the absence of objective progression) using the Kaplan-Meier method. RECIST tumor assessments were carried out every 12 weeks until progression.
Duration of Response (DoR) The planned data cut-off for this study was when all patients, except withdrawals, had been followed up for at least 24 weeks. Patients received treatment up to approximately 2 years. DoR was defined as the time from date of first documentation of the response (CR or PR) until the date of disease progression or death from any cause.
Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) The planned data cut-off for this study was when all patients, except withdrawals, had been followed up for at least 24 weeks. Patients received treatment up to approximately 2 years. CBR was defined as the proportion of all randomised patients who had clinical benefit (response of CR, PR or SD\>=24 weeks.
Pharmacokinetic Parameter: Mean Population Clearance, a Measure of the Efficiency With Which Fulvestrant is Eliminated From the Body Baseline to 12 weeks A 2-compartment model with a 1st order absorption and 1st order elimination process was fitted to the fulvestrant concentration-time data. Relative standard error is reported for the mean.
Pharmacokinetic Parameter: Mean Volume of Distribution at Steady State, a Measure of the Apparent Volume in the Body Into Which Fulvestrant Distributes Baseline to 12 weeks A 2-compartment model with a 1st order absorption and 1st order elimination process was fitted to the fulvestrant concentration-time data. Relative standard error is reported for the mean. The mean estimate of volume of distribution at steady state was reported as the sum of V1/F and V2/F in the clinical study report.
