Number of Participants with no progression on the Total Symptom Score (TSS)
The TSS score is utilized to evaluate clinical symptoms, which is based on the MFSAF Total Symptom Score (TSS) form v4.0. No progression is defined as: * The participants who still have a TSS score equal to or less than (≤) 10 If the baseline score is ≤ 10. * The participants with a TSS score no increase than 50% If the baseline score is greater than (\>) 10.
