What is being measured

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

  1. QoL(quality of life)

    Changes in quality of life were assessed by EORTC QLQ-C30

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. PFS (progression free survival)

    from the first day of therapy to the date of disease progression or death from any cause, whichever was first (according the criterion of RECIST 1.1 ).

    Measured: 2 years

  2. OS (overall survival)

    from the first day of therapy to death or last follow-up

    Measured: 2 years
