Pre-Assignment Details
Significant events and approaches for the overall study following participant enrollment, but prior to group assignment
The one participant who was randomized to pemetrexed but treated with cyclophosphamide is included in the as randomized group (pemetrexed) for the purposes of the participant flow, excluded from the efficacy analyses (per the protocol), but in the as treated group (cyclophosphamide) for safety analyses.
