- Baseline until death due to any cause; up to 16 months or data cut-off 11 FEB 2016.
- description
- Overall survival is defined as the time from randomization to death due to any cause. Participants without death observed at the time of the analysis will be censored at last date known to be alive. The median overall survival time was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Overall survival was compared between treatment groups using log-rank test.
