Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Secondary · Scans taken at baseline and then follow up assessments taken every 8 weeks up to Week 40 and then every 16 weeks until objective disease progression as defined by RECIST 1.1, assessed up to 3 years

Time from randomization until the date of objective radiological disease progression according to RECIST (v1.1) or death by any cause in the absence of progression. Objective progression is defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of the target lesions (compared to previous minimum sum) or an overall non-target lesion assessment of progression or a new lesion.

Number of patients with objective response. Per RECIST 1.1, complete response (CR) is disappearance of all target lesions since baseline; partial response (PR) is at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions. Overall Response = CR + PR.
