Primary outcome measure(s)
Incidence and severity of Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) — 28 days or 35 days, depending on the dosing schedule Assessment of safety of study drug. A dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) is defined as an adverse event or abnormal laboratory value of CTCAE grade 3 or higher that occurs within the DLT evaluation period (28 days or 35 days depending on the schedule) and that is not primarily related to disease, disease progression, intercurrent illness, or concomitant medications with exceptions provided in the clinical protocol.
Incidence and severity of Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) — 21 months Assessment of safety of study drug.
Frequency of dose interruptions — 21 months Assessment of tolerability of study drug
Frequency of dose reductions — 21 months Assessment of tolerability of study drug
Dose intensities — 21 months Assessment of tolerability of study drug Dose intensity is defined as the ratio of actual cumulative dose received and actual duration of exposure.
