- Overall Survival (OS)
- timeFrame
- Baseline until death or at least 1 year after the randomization of last participant
- description
- Time in weeks from randomization to date of death due to any cause. OS was calculated as (the death date minus the date of randomization plus 1) divided by 7. Death was determined from adverse event data (where outcome was death) or from follow-up contact data (where the participant current status was death).
