Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Overall Survival (OS)
Up to approximately 36 months
Progression free survival (PFS)
Up to approximately 36 months
Intracranial progression-free survival based on local assessment using RANO-BM criteria
First at week 6 and week 12 (±1 week) post-randomization. Then every 12 weeks (±2 weeks) until intracranial progression or study discontinuation.

Time interval between the date of randomization and the date of intracranial progression or neurological related death, whichever occurs first

Objective Response Rate assessed by central review
Time from inclusion to disease progression, up to 3 years

The objective response rate is defined as the percentage of patients with a complete response (CR) or a partial response (PR) for a given treatment

Progression-free survival (PFS)
From randomisation to disease progression or death, up to 4 years

The progression-free survival is the length of time during and after the treatment of a disease that a patient lives with the disease but it does not get worse.

To assess the therapeutic value of the bispecific antibody anti-VEGF / anti-PD-1 ivonescimab as 2nd/3rd line treatment in relapsing PM patients
12 weeks after start of treatment.

The analysis of the primary efficacy endpoint will be conducted in all eligible patients, based on the disease control rate (DCR) at 12 weeks according to mRECIST 1.1 for mesothelioma, which was defined as the proportion of patients with compete response (CR), partial response (PR) or stable disease (SD) at 12 weeks as assessed by the independent review committtee.

Objective Response Rate (ORR)
Up to 2 years

ORR was defined as the percentage of participants achieving complete response (CR) and partial response (PR) on treatment based on RECIST v1.1 criteria.

Safety and adverse events (AEs)
Through study completion; an average of 1 year.

Incidence of Adverse Events, Graded According to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) Version (v) 5.0
