Best Overall Response Rate Based on Investigator's Assessment (Applying the IWG 2007 Response Criteria)Primary· Baseline and every 2 cycles up to Month 12 (approximately 16 cycles), from Cycle 16 every 4 cycles until disease progression, after end of treatment every 12 weeks for up to 12 Months from last dose (Up to 4 years)
Best overall response rate is defined as the percentage of participants with complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as assessed by the Investigator using International Working Group (IWG) Criteria. CR is defined as the disappearance of all evidence of disease and PR is defined as regression of measurable disease and no new sites (as specified in the Cheson 2007, IWG response criteria).

Time to Progression (TTP)Secondary· Baseline and every 2 cycles up to Month 12, from Cycle 16 every 4 cycles until disease progression, after end of treatment every 12 weeks for up to 12 Months (Up to 4 years)
Time to progression (TTP) is defined as the time in days from the date of first study drug administration to the date of first documentation of Progressive Disease (PD) according to IWG criteria (Cheson 2007). PD is defined as any new lesion or increase by \>50% of previously involved sites from nadir.

Duration of Response (DOR)Secondary· Baseline and every 2 cycles up to Month 12, from Cycle 16 every 4 cycles until disease progression, after end of treatment every 12 weeks for up to 12 Months (Up to 4 years)
DOR is defined as the time from the date of first documentation of a CR, or partial response (PR) to the date of first documentation of PD according to IWG criteria. CR definition includes the complete disappearance of all evidence of disease, the definition of PR includes at least a 50% decrease in sum of the product of the diameters (SPD) of up to six of the largest dominant nodes or nodal masses, and PD is defined as any new lesion or increase by \>50% of previously involved sites from nadir, as described in the IWG response criteria (Cheson 2007).

Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse EventsSecondary· First dose of study drug to 30 days after last dose (Up to 25 months)
An Adverse Event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. A treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) is defined as an adverse event with an onset that occurs after receiving study drug and includes all-causality (ie, treatment-related and not treatment-related as assessed by the investigator).
