What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Safety assessment, using incidence according to SOC and PT of AEs and SAEs

    Safety evaluation was reported using summary statistics. For each AE, data was summarized using incidence according to system organ class and preferred term of AEs and SAEs. Moreover, causality assessment was done and its results was reported by frequency and percentage.

    Time frame: This outcome was assessed throughout the study, up to 8 chemotherapy cycles. The duration of treatment was at the physicians' discretion based on the patient's condition.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Effectiveness assessment: The frequency of neutropenia and neutropenic fever

    The frequency of neutropenia and neutropenic fever was reported

    Time frame: This outcome was assessed throughout the study, up to 8 chemotherapy cycles. The duration of treatment was at the physicians' discretion based on the patient's condition.
