Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Phase III: Progression-Free Survival (PFS), as Determined by the Investigator According to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1)From randomization in Phase III until the first occurrence of disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first, up to approximately 36 months

PFS was defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of disease progression as determined by the investigator according to RECIST v1.1, or death from any cause, whichever occurred first. Progressive disease (PD) is at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum of diameters at prior timepoints (including baseline). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum of diameters must also demonstrate an absolute increase of ≥ 5 millimeters (mm).

Phase III: Objective Response Rate (ORR) as Determined by the Investigator According to RECIST v1.1From randomization in Phase III up to approximately 36 months

ORR was defined as the percentage of participants with a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) on two consecutive occasions ≥4 weeks apart, as determined by the investigator according to RECIST v1.1. CR is defined as the disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have a reduction in the short axis to \<10 mm. PR is defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of all target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters, in the absence of CR.

Phase III: Duration of Objective Response (DOR) as Determined by the Investigator According to RECIST v1.1From randomization in Phase III until the first occurrence of disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first, up to approximately 36 months

DOR was defined as time from first occurrence of a documented objective response to the first occurrence of disease progression as determined by investigator per RECIST v1.1, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. Objective response was defined using RECIST v1.1 criteria as: CR = disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have a reduction in short axis to \<10 mm. PR = at least a 30% decrease in sum of diameters of all target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters, in absence of CR. PD = at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum of diameters at prior timepoints (including baseline). In addition to relative increase of 20%, sum of diameters must also demonstrate an absolute increase of ≥ 5 mm. Stable disease (SD): Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for CR or PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD.

Phase III: Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) as Determined by the Investigator According to RECIST v1.1From randomization in Phase III until the first occurrence of disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first, up to approximately 36 months

CBR was defined as the percentage of participants who had a CR or PR, or SD for at least 24 weeks, as determined by the investigator according to RECIST v1.1. CR is defined as disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have a reduction in the short axis to \<10 mm. PR is defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of all target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters, in the absence of CR. SD is defined as neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for CR or PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD. PD is at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum of diameters at prior timepoints (including baseline). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum of diameters must also demonstrate an absolute increase of ≥ 5 mm.

Phase III: Overall Survival (OS) as Determined by the Investigator According to RECIST v1.1From randomization in Phase III until the first occurrence of disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first, up to approximately 36 months

OS was defined as the time from randomization to death from any cause.

Phase III: Time to Deterioration (TTD) in Severity of Pain, According to the Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form (BPI-SF)From randomization in Phase III to the first documentation of a ≥2-point increase in pain scale (up to approximately 36 months)

TTD in severity of pain is defined as the time from randomization to the first documentation of a 2-point or more increase from baseline on the "worst pain" item from the BPI-SF. A 2-point change is defined as clinically meaningful. The BPI-SF is a widely used patient-reported outcome (PRO) for assessing pain, and the "worst pain" item, frequently used for evaluating increases in the severity of pain. The BPI-SF asks participants to rate their pain at its worst in the last week on a scale from 0 (No pain) to 10 (pain as bad as one can imagine). Higher score indicates more pain.

Phase III: TTD in Presence and Interference of Pain According to the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality-of-Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30) Pain ScaleFrom randomization in Phase III to the first documentation of a ≥10-point increase (up to approximately 36 months)

TTD in presence \& interference of pain is defined as time from randomization to the first documentation of ≥10-point increase from baseline in EORTC QLQ-C30 pain scale (items 9 \& 19). EORTC QLQ-C30 is a validated 30-item self-report measure assessing 5 aspects of participant functioning (physical, emotional, role, cognitive, \& social), eight symptom scales (fatigue, nausea \& vomiting, pain, dyspnea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, \& diarrhea), financial difficulties, \& global health status/quality of life (GHS/QoL) with a recall period of the previous week. Functioning \& symptoms items are scored on a 4-point scale (1=Not at All to 4=Very Much). Pain scale is scored on a 4-point scale (1=Not at All to 4=Very Much) including Item 9: have you had pain? and Item 19: did pain interfere with your daily activity? both range from 1=Not at All to 4=Very Much. All sub-scores are linearly transformed to a total score range of 0-100. Higher scores indicate worse pain symptoms.

Phase III: TTD in Physical Functioning (PF), Role Functioning (RF), GHS/QoL According to EORTC QLQ-C30From randomization in Phase III to the first documentation of a ≥10-point decrease in the PF, RF and GHS/QoL of EORTC QLQ-C30 (up to approximately 36 months)

TTD in PF, RF and GHS/QoL is defined as the time to first documented ≥10-point decrease from baseline in following scales of the EORTC QLQ-C30: PF, RF and GHS/QoL. EORTC QLQ-C30 is a validated 30-item self-report measure assessing 5 aspects of participant functioning (physical, emotional, role, cognitive, \& social), eight symptom scales (fatigue, nausea \& vomiting, pain, dyspnea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, \& diarrhea), financial difficulties, \& GHS/QoL with a recall period of the previous week. The PF scale has 5 questions about participants' physical functioning and is scored on a 4-point scale (1=Not at All to 4=Very Much). The RF scale is scored on a 4-point scale (1=Not at All to 4=Very Much). The GHS/QoL scale has 7 possible scores of responses (1=Very Poor to 7=Excellent). All sub-scores are linearly transformed to a total score range of 0-100. Higher scores indicate a higher response level (better functioning/QoL).

Phase III: Number of Participants With Adverse EventsUp to approximately 36 months

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product, regardless of causal attribution. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product; any new disease or exacerbation of an existing disease; recurrence of an intermittent medical condition; any deterioration in a laboratory value or other clinical test; AEs that are related to a protocol-mandated intervention, including those that occur prior to assignment of study treatment.
