Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Objective Response Rate (ORR) Per Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)
From date of randomization to disease progression (Up to 37 months)

ORR is defined as the percentage of participants with a confirmed best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) using RECIST v 1.1 per blinded independent central review (BICR) assessment. CR=Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have reduction in short axis to \< 10 mm. PR=At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions.

Progression-free Survival (PFS) Per Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)
From date of randomization to disease progression, or death, whichever comes first (Up to 37 months)

PFS is defined as the time between the date of randomization and the first date of documented tumor progression using RECIST v 1.1 per blinded independent central review (BICR), or death due to any cause, whichever comes first. Progressive disease (PD)=At least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions. The sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm.

Overall Survival (OS)
From date of randomization to date of death (Up to 37 months)

OS is defined as the time between the date of randomization and the date of death due to any cause. Participants who do not have a date of death will be censored on the last date for which a participant was known to be alive.

Incidence of adverse events (AEs)
Approximately 2 years
Incidence of serious adverse events (SAEs)
Approximately 2 years
Incidence of AEs leading to discontinuation
Approximately 2 years
Incidence of deaths
Approximately 2 years
Incidence of AEs meeting protocol-defined dose limiting toxicity (DLT) criteria
Approximately 2 years
Incidence of laboratory abnormalities
Approximately 2 years

Secondary Endpoints

Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) Per Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)
From date of randomization to disease progression (Up to 37 months)
Duration of Response (DoR) Per Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)
From date of randomization to disease progression, or death, whichever is earlier (Up to 37 months)
Time to Objective Response (TTR) Per Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)
From date of randomization to disease progression (Up to 37 months)
