What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Best Overall Tumor Response

    Best response recorded from the start of treatment until disease progression/recurrence (taking as reference for progressive disease the smallest measurements recorded since the treatment started).

    Time frame: every other 21 day cycle (6-8 cycles), every 3 months during long-term follow-up

Secondary outcomes

  1. Duration of Response

    The duration of a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) was defined as the time from first objective status assessment of CR or PR to the first time of progression or death as a result of any cause.

    Time frame: every other 21 day cycle (6-8 cycles) and every 3 months during long-term follow-up

  2. Time to Progressive Disease

    Defined as the time from study enrollment to the first date of disease progression. Time to disease progression was censored at the date of death if death was due to other cause.

    Time frame: every other 21 day cycle (6-8 cycles) and every 3 months during long-term follow-up

  3. Time to Treatment Failure

    Defined as the time from study enrollment to the first observation of disease progression, death as a result of any cause, or early discontinuation of treatment. Time to treatment failure was censored at the date of the last follow-up visit for patients who did not discontinue early, who were still alive, and who have not progressed.

    Time frame: every other 21 day cycle (6-8 cycles) and every 3 months during long-term follow-up

  4. Number of Patients With Maximum Common Toxicity Criteria - National Cancer Institute (CTC-NCI): Possibly Related to Study Drug by Grade

    Grades range from 0 (no toxicity) to 4 (life-threatening or disabling).

    Time frame: every 21 day cycle (6-8 cycles) and every 3 months during long-term follow-up
