- Best objective response [ Time Frame: 5 years ]Will be defined as a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR), confirmed and unconfirmed, as assessed by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 using investigator's review.
- Incidence of adverse events [ Time Frame: 5 years ]Will assess events leading to dose reduction, events leading to permanent treatment discontinuation, overall incidence and Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events criteria grade of adverse events, as well as relatedness of adverse events to treatment, incidence of great 2 or greater non-hematologic toxicity and grade 3 or 4 hematologic toxicity, causes of death.
- Progression-free survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: Time from the start of study treatment to the earlier date of assessment of progression or death by any cause in the absence of progression, assessed up to 5 years ]Progression will be assessed by method (RECIST v.1.1 etc.) criteria using (independent central or investigator's) review. PFS for patients last known to be alive and progression-free will be censored at the date of last follow-up.
- Duration of response (DOR) [ Time Frame: Time from the initial response (CR or PR) until the time of first documentation of disease progression, assessed up to 5 years ]Will be assessed by RECIST version 1.1 using investigator's review. DOR for patients last known to be alive and progression-free will be censored at the date of last follow-up.
- Disease control (DC) [ Time Frame: 5 years ]Will be defined as a best response of CR, PR or stable disease (SD) (of at least 6 months) as assessed by RECIST version 1.1 using investigator's review. DC for patients not known to have a best response of CR or PR, or SD for at least 6 months from the start of study treatment will be coded as lacking disease control.
- Overall survival [ Time Frame: From the start of study treatment to the date of death by any cause, assessed up to 5 years ]
