Note:—Listed values are compared to 0% change (null value) for each of the 5 parameters. RANO response assessment key: PR indicates partial response; SD, stable disease; PD, progression of disease. For patient 2(*), the targeted treated primary tumor was classified as SD; however, new discontinuous leptomeningeal enhancement designated the overall response as PD.
