Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Intracranial Overall Response Rate
Intracranial overall response rate (iORR) is defined as the proportion of patients whose best overall response is either complete response (CR) or partial response (PR), as per local review and according to RANO-LM.
Secondary outcomes
Intracranial Progression Free Survival
Intracranial progression-free survival (iPFS) is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of the first documented progression, as per local review and according to RANO-LM or death due to any cause.
Intracranial Duration of Response
Intracranial duration of response (iDoR) is defined as the time from randomization to disease progression or death in patients who achieve complete or partial response, as per local review and according to RANO-LM.
Overall Response Rate
Overall response rate (ORR) is defined as the proportion of patients whose best overall response is either complete response (CR) or partial response (PR), as per local review and according to RECIST 1.1.
Progression Free Survival
Progression-free survival (PFS) is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of the first documented progression as per local review and according to RECIST 1.1 or death due to any cause.
