What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Overall Survival (OS)

    OS was defined as the time from randomization to the date of death from any cause. OS was censored on the last date a subject was known to be alive. Survival follow-up was to be conducted every 3 months after participants's off-treatment date.

    Measured: From date of randomization to date of death (assessed up to October 2019, approximately 23 months)

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Progression Free Survival (PFS) by BICR

    PFS (primary definition) was defined as the time from the randomization date to the date of the first documented tumor progression based on BICR assessment (per RECIST 1.1), or death from any cause, whichever occurred first. Participants who died without a reported prior progression were considered to have progressed on the date of their death. Participants who had not progressed or died were censored on the date of their last evaluable tumor assessment. Participants who did not have any on-study tumor assessments and did not die were censored on the randomization date. Participants who started any palliative local therapy or subsequent anticancer therapy without a prior reported progression were censored at the last evaluable tumor assessment prior to initiation of the palliative local therapy or subsequent anti-cancer therapy, whichever procedure occurred first.

    Measured: From date of randomization until date of documented tumor progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first (assessed up to October 2024, approximately 72 months)

  2. Objective Response Rate (ORR) by BICR

    ORR was defined as the number of randomized participants with a best overall response (BOR) of confirmed CR or PR based on BICR assessments (using RECIST v1.1 criteria), divided by the number of all randomized participants. BOR was recorded between the date of randomization and the date of objectively documented progression per RECIST 1.1 or the date of initiation of palliative local therapy or the date of initiation of subsequent anti-cancer therapy, whichever occurred first. For participants without documented progression or palliative local therapy or subsequent anti-cancer therapy, all available response designations contributed to the BOR determination. For participants who continued treatment beyond progression, the BOR was determined based on response designations recorded up to the time of the initial RECIST 1.1 defined progression.

    Measured: From date of randomization until date of documented tumor progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first (assessed up to October 2024, approximately 72 months)

  3. Duration of Response (DoR)

    DoR was defined as the time between the date of first confirmed documented response (CR or PR) to the date of the first documented BICR-assessed tumor progression (per RECIST 1.1), or death from any cause, whichever occurred first. Participants who started subsequent therapy (including palliative local therapy) without a prior reported progression were censored at the last evaluable tumor assessments prior to initiation of the subsequent anticancer therapy (including palliative local therapy). Participants who died without a reported prior progression were considered to have progressed on the date of their death. For subjects who neither progressed nor died, DoR was censored on the date of their last evaluable tumor assessment. DoR was evaluated for responders (confirmed CR or PR) only.

    Measured: From date of randomization until date of documented tumor progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first (assessed up to October 2024, approximately 72 months)

  4. Time to Response (TTR)

    TTR was defined as the time from randomization to the date of the first confirmed documented response (CR or PR), as assessed by the BICR. TTR was evaluated for responders (confirmed CR or PR) only.

    Measured: From date of randomization until date of documented tumor progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first (assessed up to October 2024, approximately 72 months)

  5. Objective Response Rate (ORR) by BICR by PD-LI Tumor Cell Expression

    ORR was defined as the proportion of randomized participants with a best overall response (BOR) of confirmed complete or partial response per BICR using RECIST v1.1. BOR was assessed from randomization until documented progression, start of palliative local or subsequent anti-cancer therapy-whichever came first. If none occurred, all response data contributed to BOR. For those treated beyond progression, BOR was based on responses before initial RECIST-defined progression. PD-L1 expression was measured via Dako PD-L1 IHC 28-8 pharmDx test as the percentage of tumor cells with membrane staining among ≥100 evaluable cells. Expression was categorized as ≥1%, <1%, not quantifiable, ≥50%, or 1-49%.

    Measured: From date of randomization until date of documented tumor progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first (assessed up to October 2024, approximately 72 months)

  6. PFS by BICR by PD-L1 Tumor Cell Expression

    PFS (primary definition) was defined as the time from the randomization date to the date of the first documented tumor progression based on BICR assessment (per RECIST 1.1), or death from any cause, whichever occurred first. Participants who died without a reported prior progression were considered to have progressed on the date of their death. Participants who had not progressed or died were censored on the date of their last evaluable tumor assessment. Participants who did not have any on-study tumor assessments and did not die were censored on the randomization date. Participants who started any palliative local therapy or subsequent anticancer therapy without a prior reported progression were censored at the last evaluable tumor assessment prior to initiation of the palliative local therapy or subsequent anti-cancer therapy, whichever procedure occurred first.

    Measured: From date of randomization until date of documented tumor progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first (assessed up to October 2024, approximately 72 months)

  7. OS by PD-L1 Tumor Cell Expression

    OS was defined as the time from randomization to the date of death from any cause. OS was censored on the last date a subject was known to be alive. Survival follow-up was to be conducted every 3 months after participants's off-treatment date.

    Measured: From date of randomization to date of death (assessed up to October 2024, approximately 72 months)

  8. PFS by BICR by Tumor Mutational Burden

    PFS (primary definition) was defined as the time from the randomization date to the date of the first documented tumor progression based on BICR assessment (per RECIST 1.1), or death from any cause, whichever occurred first. Participants who died without a reported prior progression were considered to have progressed on the date of their death. Participants who had not progressed or died were censored on the date of their last evaluable tumor assessment. Participants who did not have any on-study tumor assessments and did not die were censored on the randomization date. Participants who started any palliative local therapy or subsequent anticancer therapy without a prior reported progression were censored at the last evaluable tumor assessment prior to initiation of the palliative local therapy or subsequent anti-cancer therapy, whichever procedure occurred first.

    Measured: From date of randomization until date of documented tumor progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first (assessed up to October 2024, approximately 72 months)

  9. ORR by BICR by Tumor Mutational Burden

    ORR was defined as the number of randomized participants with a best overall response (BOR) of confirmed CR or PR based on BICR assessments (using RECIST v1.1 criteria), divided by the number of all randomized participants. BOR was recorded between the date of randomization and the date of objectively documented progression per RECIST 1.1 or the date of initiation of palliative local therapy or the date of initiation of subsequent anti-cancer therapy, whichever occurred first. For participants without documented progression or palliative local therapy or subsequent anti-cancer therapy, all available response designations contributed to the BOR determination. For participants who continued treatment beyond progression, the BOR was determined based on response designations recorded up to the time of the initial RECIST 1.1 defined progression.

    Measured: From date of randomization until date of documented tumor progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first (assessed up to October 2024, approximately 72 months)

  10. OS by Tumor Mutational Burden

    OS was defined as the time from randomization to the date of death from any cause. OS was censored on the last date a subject was known to be alive. Survival follow-up was to be conducted every 3 months after participants's off-treatment date.

    Measured: From date of randomization to date of death (assessed up to October 2024, approximately 72 months)

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 16 Sep 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Overall Survival (OS) (time frame: From date of randomization to date of death (assessed up to October 2019, approximately 23 months)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03215706, which also lists 4 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Dec 2025.
