Trial Outcomes & Findings for Optune Device - TT Field Plus Nivolumab and Ipilimumab for Melanoma With Brain Metastasis (NCT NCT03903640)

NCT ID: NCT03903640

Last Updated: 2022-06-07

Results Overview

* The PFS time will be calculated as the duration of time from the date of first dose of study treatment to the date of earliest intracranial progression or death, whichever occurs first. * Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. (Note: the appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progressions).
