SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Assessed every 9 weeks during treatment; after off-treatment, every 3 months if patient is <2 years from study entry and every 6 months if patient is 2-5 years from study entry

Population: Eligible and treated patients with measurable disease at baseline are included in this analysis.

Measurable disease response was evaluated using RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors) 1.0 criteria. Per RECIST criteria, complete response (CR) = disappearance of all target and non-target lesions. Partial response (PR)= \>=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameters of target lesions from baseline, and persistence of one or more non-target lesion(s) and/or the maintenance of tumor marker level above the normal limits. Measurable disease response = CR + PR. Only patients with measurable disease at baseline are included in this analysis.
