Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Progression Free Survival (PFS) as Per RECIST v1.1 (by Local Investigator Assessment)
4 years

PFS Results presented for all MCS110 treated patients (with and without day 8 dose), in line with phase 2 study design.

Change in Pigmented Villonodular Synovitis (PVNS) Tumor Size
Week 4

To assess the efficacy of a single i.v. dose of MCS110 in changing the size of PVNS tumors (as compared to baseline) compared to placebo over 4 weeks evaluated by volume of PVNS tumors by 3-dimensional MRI. This analysis includes all data from patients 4 weeks after receiving the first dose of MCS110 (3, 5 or 10 mg/kg) or placebo and assesses the tumor volume changes at week 4 as compared to baseline. As all parts (Part A, B and C) of the study are assessed after a single dose at week 4 the data set is called "ABC4".

Percent Change in Pigmented Villonodular Synovitis (PVNS) Tumor Size
Week 4

To assess the efficacy of a single i.v. dose of MCS110 in percent change of the PVNS tumor volume at week 4 as compared to baseline and compared to placebo evaluated by volume of PVNS tumors by 3-dimensional MRI. This analysis includes all data from patients who received at least a single dose of MCS110 (3, 5 or 10 mg/kg) or placebo and assesses the tumor volume changes at week 4 as compared to baseline. As all parts (Part A, B and C) of the study are assessed after a single dose at week 4 the data set is called "ABC4".

Change in Pigmented Villonodular Synovitis (PVNS) or Giant Cell Tumor of the Tendon Sheath (GCTTS) Tumor Size
Up to 8 weeks post last dose

Assessment of maximum efficacy (multiple i.v.monthly doses (2 to 6) of 3, 5 or 10 mg/kg MCS110 or 3 \& 10 mg/kg or 5 \& 10 mg/kg in changing PVNS tumor volume (as compared to baseline) up to 8 weeks post last dose evaluated by MRI. Analysis included data starting from 1st dose of MCS110 in all treatment groups of Parts B and C. Part B patients who received placebo as 1st dose, measurement prior to receiving first dose of MCS110, was used as baseline and assessment time-points were adjusted accordingly. For Part C, participants starting treatment with low dose of MCS110 of 3 or 5 mg/kg could switch to 10 mg/kg after 3 monthly doses, if MCS110 was well tolerated and tumor volume reduction was ≤ 45%. Analysis includes data from patients who received at least 2 doses. The following five groups were assessed: Subjects receiving only 3 mg/kg, only 5 mg/kg or 10 mg/kg and those who switched after 3 doses of 3 mg/kg to 10 mg/kg \[3/10 mg/kg\] or after 3 doses of 5 mg/kg to 10 mg/kg \[5/10 mg/kg\]

Percentage Change in Pigmented Villonodular Synovitis (PVNS) or Giant Cell Tumor of the Tendon Sheath (GCTTS) Tumor Size
Up to 8 weeks post last dose

To assess the maximum efficacy of multiple monthly i.v. doses (2 to 6) of 3, 5 or 10 mg/kg MCS110 or 3 and 10 mg/kg or 5 and 10 mg/kg by percent change in the PVNS tumor volume (as compared to baseline) up to 8 weeks post last dose evaluated by MRI. Subjects starting treatment with a low dose of MCS110 of 3 or 5 mg/kg could switch to 10 mg/kg after 3 monthly doses, if MCS110 was well tolerated and the tumor volume reduction was ≤ 45%. This analysis includes data from all participants who received at least 2 doses of MCS110 and thus includes only patients from Part B and C of the study, thus the data set is called "Part BC". The following five groups were assessed: Subjects receiving only 3 mg/kg, only 5 mg/kg or 10 mg/kg and those who switched after 3 doses of 3 mg/kg to 10 mg/kg \[3/10 mg/kg\] or after 3 doses of 5 mg/kg to 10 mg/kg \[5/10 mg/kg\].
