Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
overall survival
Time from randomization to death from any cause. Unit of measure: median overall survival (months); hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI); 12- and 24-month survival rates (%). Assessment schedule: survival status assessed every 3 months after the end of treatment until death or study cut-off (up to 36 months).
Secondary outcomes
Progression free survival
Time from randomization to the earliest of radiologically documented progressive disease (per RECIST 1.1 assessed by the investigator) or death from any cause. Unit of measure: median progression-free survival (months); hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI); 6- and 12-month PFS rate (%). Measurement tool: contrast-enhanced CT or MRI scanned every 6 weeks for the first 48 weeks, then every 12 weeks until disease progression, death, or study cut-off.
Time to second progression or death (PFS2)
Defined as time from randomization to the earliest of radiologically documented second progression (per RECIST 1.1 assessed by the investigator ) or death from any cause. Unit of measure: median PFS2 (months); hazard ratio (HR) and 95% CI; 6- and 12-month PFS2 rate (%). Measurement tool: contrast-enhanced CT/MRI. Assessment schedule: imaging every 6 weeks during induction; every 4-6 weeks during maintenance; after first PD, every 6 weeks until second PD or death.
Disease control rate
Proportion of randomized subjects with best overall response of complete response (CR), partial response (PR), or stable disease (SD) per RECIST 1.1 assessed by the investigator. Unit of measure: percentage of patients (%); 95% confidence interval (Clopper-Pearson). Assessment schedule: scans every 6 weeks for the first 48 weeks, then every 12 weeks until progression, death, or 36 months.
Overall response rate (ORR)
Proportion of randomized subjects achieving complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) per RECIST 1.1 assessed by the investigator. Unit of measure: percentage of patients (%); 95% confidence interval (Clopper-Pearson). Assessment schedule: scans every 6 weeks (±7 days) for the first 48 weeks, then every 12 weeks (±7 days) until progression, death, or 36 months; response determined by site investigator.
Other outcomes
Correlation of PD-L1 expression with overall survival
Pearson correlation coefficient between baseline PD-L1 expression and overall survival (months). Unit of measure: r (dimensionless) with 95% confidence interval. Measurement tool: PD-L1 IHC 22C3 pharmDx assay; PD-L1 tumor proportion score (TPS, %). Assessment schedule: baseline diagnostic biopsy and, if clinically feasible, at the time of first and second tumor progression.
Correlation of PD-L1 expression with progression-free survival
Pearson correlation coefficient between baseline PD-L1 TPS and PFS (months). Unit of measure: r (dimensionless) with 95% CI. Measurement tool: PD-L1 IHC 22C3 pharmDx assay; TPS (%). Assessment schedule: baseline tumor biopsy.
Correlation of neutrophil count with overall survival
Pearson correlation coefficient between baseline peripheral blood neutrophil count and overall survival (months). Unit of measure: r (dimensionless) with 95% CI. Measurement tool: automated hematology analyzer; absolute neutrophil count (10⁹/L).
Patient-Reported Global Health Status and Quality of Life Score
Change in patient-reported global health status/quality of life score, as measured by the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30) global health status/quality of life scale (items 29 and 30). Unit of measure: Mean change from baseline in score. Scale Details: The EORTC QLQ-C30 global health status/QoL scale is a 7-point Likert scale ranging from 1 ("Very poor") to 7 ("Excellent"). The raw score is linearly transformed to a 0-100 scale. Higher scores indicate a better quality of life.
