Percentage of Participants With Objective Response (OR)
Percentage of participants with OR based on assessment of confirmed complete response (CR) or confirmed partial response (PR) according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). Confirmed responses were those that persisted on repeat imaging study at least 4 weeks after initial documentation of response. The best overall response achieved within the time from first drug administration to progressive disease or end of study was reported. CR was defined as complete disappearance of all target lesions and non-target disease, with the normalization of tumor marker levels. No new lesions. PR was defined as greater than or equal to (≥) 30 percent (%) decrease under baseline of the sum of diameters of all target lesions. The short axis was used in the sum for target lesions. Persistence of one or more non-target lesion(s) or/and maintenance of tumor marker levels above the normal limits. No new lesions.
Time frame: Screening; Weeks 6, 12, 18, 24, and 30; Every 3 months through follow-up
Percentage of Participants With Disease Control
The percentage of participants with disease control was based on assessment of confirmed CR, PR, or stable disease (SD) according to RECIST criteria. Confirmed responses were those that persisted on repeat imaging study at least 4 weeks after initial documentation of response. The best overall response achieved within the time from first drug administration to progressive disease or end of study was reported. CR was defined as complete disappearance of all target lesions and non-target disease, with the normalization of tumor marker levels. No new lesions. PR was defined as ≥ 30 % decrease under baseline of the sum of diameters of all target lesions. The short axis was used in the sum for target lesions. Persistence of one or more non-target lesion(s) or/and maintenance of tumor marker levels above the normal limits. No new lesions. SD was defined as not qualifying for PR or progressive disease.
Time frame: Screening; Weeks 6, 12, 18, 24, and 30; Every 3 months through follow-up
Time to Disease Progression - Percentage of Participants With an Event
Time to progression was measured from time of treatment commencement to time of disease progression, or the date of death. Participants who were not progressed at the time of study completion (including participants who died before progressive disease) or who were lost to follow-up were censored at the date of last tumor assessment.

Time to Disease Progression
Time to progression was measured from time of treatment commencement to time of disease progression, or the date of death. Participants who were not progressed at the time of study completion (including participants who died before progressive disease) or who were lost to follow-up were censored at the date of their tumor assessment.
Time frame: Screening; Weeks 6, 12, 18, 24, and 30; Every 3 months through follow-up
Time to Disease Progression - Percentage of Participants Progression-free at 12 Months
Time to progression was measured from time of treatment commencement to time of disease progression, or the date of death. Participants who were not progressed at the time of study completion (including participants who died before progressive disease) or who were lost to follow-up were censored at the date of last tumor assessment.
Time frame: Day 1, Weeks 1-18, Weeks 24 and 30, then every 3 months until death.
Overall Survival - Percentage of Participants With an Event
Overall Survival was defined as the time in months from randomization to date of death due to any cause. Participants without an event were censored the last time they were known to be alive.
Time frame: Day 1, Weeks 1-18, Weeks 24 and 30, then every 3 months until death.
Overall Survival
Overall Survival was defined as the time in months from randomization to date of death due to any cause. Participants without an event were censored the last time they were known to be alive. Median Overall Survival was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.
Time frame: Day 1, Weeks 1-18, Weeks 24 and 30, then every 3 months until death.
Overall Survival - Percentage of Participants Event Free at 12 Months
Overall Survival was defined as the time in months from randomization to date of death due to any cause. Participants without an event were censored the last time they were known to be alive.
Time frame: Day 1, Weeks 1-18, Weeks 24 and 30, then every 3 months until death.
