Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Objective Response Rate (ORR) of ABT-888 and Temozolomide (TMZ) in Metastatic Breast Cancer
2 years

Objective response rate (ORR) is defined as the percentage of enrolled patients who have a partial or complete response per RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors) v1.1 guidelines. A partial response is defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum LD. A complete response is defined as disappearance of all target lesions, with any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) reduced in short axis to \<10 mm.
