Baseline, From Cycle 1 Day 1 up to end of study treatment or crossover to crizotinib arm (up to 35 months)

What was measured

EORTC QLQ-C30: included 5 functional scales (physical, role, cognitive, emotional and social), global health status/global quality of life scale, 3 symptom scales (fatigue, pain, nausea and vomiting), 6 single items that assess the additional symptoms (dyspnea, appetite loss, sleep disturbance, constipation, diarrhea) and financial difficulties. All scales and single-item measures range from 0 to 100. A high score for a functional scale represents a high/healthy level of functioning, for the global health status/QoL represents a high QoL (better participant state), and for a symptom scale/item represents a high level of symptoms/problems (worse participant state).

Analysis population: The PRO evaluable population included all participants from the FA population who completed a baseline and at least 1 postbaseline PRO assessment prior to crossover to crizotinib or end of randomized study treatment.

Groups in this outcome

Crizotinib

Crizotinib 250 mg capsule, orally twice daily was administered in treatment cycle of 21 days. Participants could continue crizotinib treatment beyond the time of RECIST v1.1 defined PD, as determined by IRR, at the discretion of the investigator if the participant was perceived to be experiencing clinical benefit.

Chemotherapy

Standard doses of chemotherapy (pemetrexed/cisplatin or pemetrexed/carboplatin) were administered intravenously on Day 1 of each cycle for a maximum of 6 cycles. Pemetrexed 500 mg per meter square (m)\^2 IV infusion according to standard of care was administered over 10 min; either cisplatin 75 mg/m\^2 IV infusion was administered approximately 30 min after the end of the pemetrexed infusion or carboplatin was administered at a dose calculated to produce an AUC of 5 or 6 mg\*min/mL, approximately 30 min after end of pemetrexed infusion.

description
EORTC QLQ-C30: included 5 functional scales (physical, role, cognitive, emotional and social), global health status/global quality of life scale, 3 symptom scales (fatigue, pain, nausea and vomiting), 6 single items that assess the additional symptoms (dyspnea, appetite loss, sleep disturbance, constipation, diarrhea) and financial difficulties. All scales and single-item measures range from 0 to 100. A high score for a functional scale represents a high/healthy level of functioning, for the global health status/QoL represents a high QoL (better participant state), and for a symptom scale/item represents a high level of symptoms/problems (worse participant state).
