Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Adverse Events (AEs) Per ParticipantWeekly Day 1 to 4 years

AE=any new unfavorable symptom, sign, or disease or worsening of a preexisting condition that may not have a causal relationship with treatment. Severity of the adverse event was judged and graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (NCI-CTC) version 2.0.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants With Complete Response to TumorEvery 7 weeks Day 1 to 4 years

Tumor measured/evaluated via imaging and assessed according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumor (RECIST) version 1.0 wherein complete response is disappearance of all target lesions; partial response is 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; progressive disease is 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, and stable disease is small changes that do not meet above criteria. The baseline assessment was done prior to the first administration of drug in the original Study CA139-540 (NCT 00344552).
