BOR is defined as sum of complete response and partial response (CR+PR). For target lesions (TLs), CR was defined as the disappearance of all TLs; PR was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of largest diameter (SLD) of the TLs, taking as a reference the baseline SLD.

From date of randomization up to Week 66

DCR is defined as the percentage of participants with a confirmed CR+PR+SD+ Non-CR/non-PD at any time as per RANO criteria. A responder is a participant with a Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR), and a non-responder is a participant with Stable Disease (SD) or Progressive Disease (PD) assessed by the RANO criteria. CR is no T1 gadolinium enhancing disease, no new lesions, or corticosteroids, and stable or decreasing T2-weighted-Fluid-Attenuated Inversion Recovery (T2/FLAIR). PR is ≥50% decrease in T1 gadolinium enhancing disease, no new lesions, stable or decreasing T2/FLAIR or corticosteroids, and stable or increasing clinical status. SD is \<50% decrease in T1 gadolinium enhancing disease but \< 25% increase, no new lesions, stable or decreasing T2/FLAIR or corticosteroids, and stable or increase in clinical status. PD is ≥25% increase in T1 gadolinium enhancing disease.
