This analysis of PFS time considers as events centrally assessed disease progressions (using RECIST 1.1 standards) and any deaths reported during the study. PFS, progression-free survival; CBR, clinical benefit rate; TGR, tumor growth rates; CI, confidence interval; HR, hazard rate; SD, standard deviation; NC, not calculated; RECIST, Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors
