Notes  
Risk of bias
Bias Authors' judgement Support for judgement
Random sequence generation (selection bias) Low risk Participants randomised, however method not specified
Allocation concealment (selection bias) Unclear risk Allocation concealment for mentioned
Blinding of participants and personnel (performance bias)
All outcomes Low risk Double blind, placebo controlled study
Blinding of outcome assessment (detection bias)
All outcomes Unclear risk Not mentioned. Outcomes were assessed using the RECIST criteria.
Incomplete outcome data (attrition bias)
All outcomes Low risk Patient flow chart included and all patients accounted for.
Selective reporting (reporting bias) High risk No study protocol available. Clinical trials.gov has only overall survival (OS) as secondary outcome. Overall response rate (ORR) and duration of response (DOR) are added as outcomes in results.
Other bias Unclear risk Sponsored by Amgen, the maker of the study drug
