Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Overall SurvivalFrom date of randomization until death, withdrawal of consent or the end of the study. The end of the study was defined as the date all AZD6244 patients had been followed for a minimum of 12 months, or the date of final analysis, whichever was later

Following progression survival data was collected until documentation of death, withdrawal of consent, loss to follow-up or the final data cut-off, whichever occurred first.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Progression Free SurvivalFrom randomization until evidence of RECIST-defined objective disease progression or data cut off, for a minimum of 12 months since start of treatment

PFS is the time from randomisation until the date of objective disease progression as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumours (RECIST version 1.1) or death (by any cause in the absence of progression). Progression is defined using RECIST (v1.1), as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5mm.

Objective Response RateFrom randomization until evidence of RECIST-defined objective disease progression or data cut off, for a minimum of 12 months since start of treatment

ORR rate is defined as the number (%) of subjects with at least one visit response of Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) , as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST v1.1) for target lesions and assessed by CT or MRI. CR, Disappearance of all target lesions; PR, ≥30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions. Data obtained up until progression, or last evaluable assessment in the absence of progression, was included in the assessment of ORR
