PD: at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study, including baseline, and an absolute increase of at least 5 mm; appearance of one or more new target or non-target lesions; or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions.
Percentage of Participants With Disease Progression Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) Via Independent Review Committee (IRC) Assessment or Death in Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population
