What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Overall Response Rate (ORR)

    Assessment of ORR (ORR = Complete Response (CR) + Partial Response (PR)) at 12 weeks after treatment. CR was defined as the complete resolution of all disease manifestations in every affected organ or site. PR was defined as an improvement in at least one organ or site without any disease progression occurring in other organs or sites.

    Time frame: 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants Experiencing an Adverse Event (AE)

    An adverse event refers to any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or illness temporally associated with the use of the product, regardless of whether it is considered related to the product.
