a, “Progressive disease” is comprised of patients who stopped treatment due to progressive disease and those with a “no” response to the question, “Did the patient have stable disease or responsive disease at the time of switching?” This does not account for patients who may have been determined to have progressive disease at the time of their last radiologic assessment while on octreotide.
