Progression Free Survival (PFS)
From randomization to date of first documented tumor progression or death (up to approximately 33 months)

Progression Free Survival (PFS) is defined as the time between the date of randomization and the date of first documented tumor progression, assessed by a blinded independent central review (BICR) (per RECIST v1.1 criteria), or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. Subjects who die without a reported progression will be considered to have progressed on the date of their death.

Number of Participants With Grade 3/Grade 4 Laboratory Test Results
From first dose (Day 1) and within 30 days of last dose of study therapy (up to approximately 69 months)

Laboratory test results are graded using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), Version 3.0. Grade 3 = Severe or medically significant but not immediately life-threatening. Grade 4 = Life-threatening or disabling.

Number of Participants With Adverse Events and Deaths
From first dose (Day 1) and within 30 days of last dose of study therapy (up to approximately 69 months)

Adverse events are any unfavorable or unintended signs, symptoms, or diseases occurring in study participants during a clinical trial, regardless of whether they are related to the intervention. They include all-cause mortality, serious adverse events, and other events exceeding a set frequency threshold. Serious adverse events are a subset that result in significant outcomes such as death, life-threatening conditions, hospitalization or its prolongation, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or other medically important conditions.

Number of Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicities
From first dose (Day 1) and up to 42 days post first dose

Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) are treatment-related adverse events occurring during the first cycle (typically Days 1-28) that meet predefined severity criteria per NCI CTCAE v4.03. Hematologic DLTs include Grade 4 neutropenia \>5 days, Grade 3 neutropenia with fever, Grade 4 thrombocytopenia or Grade 3 with bleeding, and Grade 4 anemia. Non-hematologic DLTs include any toxicity ≥Grade 3 (except alopecia or controlled nausea) or treatment interruption ≥2 weeks due to adverse events.

Objective Response Rate (ORR)
From the date of first dose (Day 1) to up to the date of objectively documented progression or the date of subsequent anti-cancer therapy, whichever occurs first (up to 80 months)

Objective Response Rate (ORR) is the percentage of participants whose best overall response is Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) per RECIST v1.1. CR is the disappearance of all target lesions and reduction of pathological lymph nodes to \<10 mm. PR is at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions from baseline. ORR is calculated as: (Number of participants with CR or PR ÷ Total participants) × 100. Confidence intervals are typically estimated using the Clopper-Pearson method.

Disease Control Rate (DCR)
From the date of first dose (Day 1) to up to the date of objectively documented progression or the date of subsequent anti-cancer therapy, whichever occurs first (up to 80 months)

Disease Control Rate (DCR) is the percentage of participants whose Best Overall Response (BOR) is Complete Response (CR), Partial Response (PR), or Stable Disease (SD) per RECIST v1.1. CR is the disappearance of all target lesions and reduction of any pathological lymph nodes to \<10 mm. PR is at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions from baseline. SD is neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for Progressive Disease, taking as reference the smallest sum diameters while on study. DCR is calculated as: (Number of participants with CR, PR, or SD ÷ Total participants) × 100.

Duration of Response (DoR)
From the date of first dose (Day 1) to up to the date of objectively documented progression or the date of subsequent anti-cancer therapy, whichever occurs first (up to 80 months)

Duration of Response (mDOR) is the median time from the first documented occurrence of Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) until disease progression or death, assessed per RECIST v1.1. CR is the disappearance of all target lesions and reduction of pathological lymph nodes to \<10 mm. PR is at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions from baseline. Progression is defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions or appearance of new lesions.

Number of adverse events (AE)
Approximately 2.2 years
Number of serious adverse events (SAE)
Approximately 2.2 years
Number of Participants With Adverse Events, Deaths and Clinically Relevant Laboratory Abnormalities
From first dose and within 135 days after last dose of study therapy (Up to approximately 82 months)

An Adverse Event (AE) is defined as any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a preexisting medical condition in a clinical investigation participant administered study treatment and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. SAEs is any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose: results in death; is life-threatening; requires inpatient hospitalization; results significant disability; or is a congenital anomaly/birth defect.

Part C, D1, D2, E - Objective Response Rate Per BICR
From first dose to the date of first objectively documented progression, per RECIST v1.1, or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first (up to approximately 127 months)

ORR is defined as the percentage of participants whose best overall response (BOR) is either CR or PR by blinded independent central review (BICR) per response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) v1.1 based on Clopper-Pearson method. Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to \\\< 10 mm. Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum during the study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm.

Part C, D1, D2, E - Disease Control Rate (DCR) Per BICR
From first dose to the date of first objectively documented progression, per RECIST v1.1, or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first (up to approximately 127 months)

Disease Control Rate (DCR) (as per Recists v1.1) is defined as the percentage of randomized participants who achieve a BOR of confirmed CR, confirmed PR, or stable disease (SD), based on BICR assessments divided by the number of all randomized participants. Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to \\\< 10 mm. Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum during the study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm.

Part C, D1, D2, E - Duration of Response (DOR) Per BICR
From first dose to the date of first objectively documented progression, per RECIST v1.1, or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first (up to approximately 127 months)

DOR for a participant with a best overall response (BOR) of CR or PR is defined as the time between the date of first response and the date of the first objectively documented tumor progression by blinded independent central review (BICR) per response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) v1.1 or death, whichever occurs first. Median computed using Kaplan-Meier method. Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to \\\< 10 mm. Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum during the study (this includes the baseline sum). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm.
