CR denotes complete response, PR partial response, uPR unconfirmed partial response, irPR immune-related partial response, SD stable disease, irSD immune-related stable disease.

Response-evaluable patients were those who received at least one dose of study therapy, had measurable disease at baseline, and one of the following: 1) at least one on-treatment tumor evaluation, 2) clinical progression, or 3) death prior to the first on-treatment tumor evaluation.

Patients who had a PR after one tumor assessment but did not have sufficient follow-up time for confirmation of the initial PR.
