Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Progression-free Survival (PFS)
Time Frame: From date of randomization to discontinuation due to disease progression or death up to primary completion date (Median follow-up 6 months)
PFS is defined as the number of months from the date of randomization to the earlier of progressive disease (PD) or death due to any cause.
Secondary Outcomes
- Objective Response Rate (ORR)(From date of randomization to discontinuation due to disease progression or intolerable Adverse Event (AE) up to primary completion date (Median follow-up 6 months))
- Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)(First dose to within 30 days of last dose of study drug (Up to Approximately 2 Years))
- Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR)(From date of randomization to discontinuation due to disease progression or intolerable AE up to primary completion date (Median follow-up 6 months))
