Overall Survival at 12 Months (OS12) Primary · 12 months

Overall survival is defined as the time from study entry to death from any cause. OS12 is the percentage of subjects who are alive 12 months after study entry. Data for subjects who are lost to follow up prior to documented death will be counted as deaths at the last assessment date when the subject is known to be alive.

Radiographic Response Rate Secondary · every 3 months for 5 years

Radiographic response (RR) is defined as a complete response or partial response per RANO (Response assessment in neuro-oncology) criteria with incorporation of iRANO (immunotherapy response assessment for neuro-oncology) criteria. The radiographic response rate is the percentage of subjects who achieved radiographic response as defined above.

Progression Free Survival (PFS) Secondary · every 3 months for up to 5 years

Progression free survival is defined as the time of study entry to time of disease progression, or death due to any cause. Data for subjects who are lost to follow up will be censored at the date when the subject is last known to be alive. PFS results below are reported up to the data cutoff in May 2021.
