Progression-free survival (PFS), defined as time from randomization until disease progression according to mRECIST (Modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors) for Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) per blinded central radiology review, or death. Only descriptive analysis of OS was repeated in the follow-up period.

Number of patients in the safety lead-in (SLI) phase who completed Cycle 1 or had a DLT and were not replaced.
At least 3 weeks after the last patient starts treatment

During SLI, patients with cholangiocarcinoma received anetumab ravtansine in combination with cisplatin and patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma received anetumab ravtansine in combination with gemcitabine. The highest dose of anetumab ravtansine that can be given so that not more than 1 out of 6 patients experiences a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) during the DLT evaluation period were declared as the MTD for anetumab ravtansine in combination with cisplatin or with gemcitabine.

A patient is a responder if the patient has a best response compared to baseline of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) among all post-baseline tumor assessments, as determined per RECIST 1.1 criteria (ITMIG modified RECIST 1.1 criteria for thymic carcinoma)

Durable disease control (lack of progression from baseline) of anetumab ravtansine in indications pancreatic and gastric cancer (co-primary endpoint)
Up to approximately 26 months after patient starts treatment

A patient experiences durable disease control if the patient has a tumor response compared to baseline of CR, PR or stable disease (SD) among the post-baseline tumor assessments made at least 180 days from first treatment, without prior disease progression
