What was measured

PFS was defined as the interval between the date of randomization and the earliest date of progressive disease (PD), as defined by the Independent Review Committee (IRC), or death due to any cause. The IRC defined PD per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST), Version 1. Per RECIST, PD is defined as a \>=20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum longest diameter recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of \>=1 new lesion.

Analysis population: Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population. Analysis was based on the assigned randomized treatment, not on the actual treatment received/not received. Participants who had neither progressed nor died were censored at the date of the last adequate tumor assessment at the time of the cut-off.

Groups in this outcome

Pazopanib 800 mg

Participants were administered pazopanib 800 mg (2 x 400 mg tablets) orally OD continuously. Pazopanib was to be taken at least one hour before or at least two hours after a meal. Participants received study treatment until disease progression, death, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent for any other reasons.

Sunitinib 50 mg

Participants were administered sunitinib 50 mg orally once daily in 6-week cycles (4 weeks of treatment, followed by 2 weeks without treatment). Participants received study treatment until disease progression, death, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent for any other reasons.
