Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Time to Progression Free Survival (PFS) Based as Per Investigator Using Kaplan-Meier Methodology
Time Frame: Time from randomisation to dates of disease progression, death from any cause or last tumor assessment, reported between day of first patient randomised, 17 August 2007, until cut-off date 28 February 2010
Progression of disease is defined as the time from study start to the date of first documented progression of disease or death due to any cause. Progression of disease is defined by RECIST criteria: Progression = 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of all target lesions, from the smallest sum of longest diameter of all target lesions recorded at or after baseline; or a new lesion; or progression of non-target lesions.
Secondary Outcomes
- Percentage of Participants With Objective Response Rate ( CR {Complete Response} OR PR {Partial Response})(Time from randomisation to dates of disease progression, death from any cause or last tumor assessment, reported between day of first patient randomised, 17 August 2007, until cut-off date 28 February 2010)
