Composite Rate of Pyrexia Related Events
Query!
Assessment method [1]
0
0
The composite rate of pyrexia related events was calculated as the total number of participants experiencing at least one of the three components of the composite endpoint (i.e., grade 3/4 pyrexia, hospitalization due to pyrexia, or permanent treatment discontinuation due to pyrexia), divided by the total number of participants treated in the study and multiplied by 100. Pyrexia is defined as fever = 38 °C.
Pyrexia events were graded by the investigator using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 4.03 as Grade 1 (mild), Grade 2 (moderate), Grade 3 (severe), Grade 4 (Life-threatening) and Grade 5 (Death)

Relapse Free Survival (RFS) Rate
Query!
Assessment method [1]
0
0
RFS is defined as the time from the date of first dose of the study treatment to the date of the first documented disease recurrence or death due to any cause whichever comes first. Treatment emergent malignancies other than second melanomas were not considered as events.
RFS rate is the estimated percent probability that a patient will remain event-free up to the specified time point. RFS rate was obtained from the Kaplan-Meier survival estimates. RFS was censored if no RFS event was observed before the first to occur between: (i) the analysis cut-off date, and (ii) the date when a new anti-cancer therapy is started. The censoring date was the date of the last adequate tumor assessment prior to data cut-off date/start of new anti-cancer therapy date.

Overall Survival (OS) Rate

OS is defined as the time from date of the first dose of study medication to date of death due to any cause, whichever comes first. If a patient was not known to have died, then OS rate is the estimated probability that a patient will remain event-free up to the specified time point. OS rate was obtained from the Kaplan-Meier survival estimates. OS was censored at the last contact date when the patient was known to be alive (on or before the cut-off date).

Change From Baseline in Subject-reported Quality of Life (QoL) Assessed by Functional Assessment Cancer Therapy - Melanoma Subscale Score (FACT-M MS)
Query!
Assessment method [5]
0
0
The FACT-M is a questionnaire that assesses participant health-related quality of life. It includes a melanoma specific (FACT-M MS) subscale that consists in 16 items related to signs, symptoms, physical/social activities most relevant to participants with advanced-stage melanoma. Each item ranges from 0 (not at all) to 4 (very much). FACT-M MS score ranges from 0 to 64, with higher score indicating better quality of life. If a patient discontinued the study treatment at Month 1 or Month 2, then the follow-up assessments started at Month 3 follow-up and continued until Month 24 follow-up or at withdrawal, lost to follow-up, death, or end of study. If a patient discontinued the study treatment from Month 3 through Month 5, the follow-up assessments started at Month 6 follow-up. If a patient discontinued from Month 6 through Month 11, the follow-up assessments started from Month 12 follow-up. For patients who completed treatment, the follow-up assessments started from Month 15 follow-up
