What was measured

Overall Survival is defined as the time from randomisation to death. It was a key secondary endpoint.

Analysis population: RS

Groups in this outcome

Afatinib

Patients administered 40 milligram (mg) film-coated tablet once daily orally for the first 28-day treatment course. Dose escalation to 50 mg once daily was allowed at the beginning of the second 28-day treatment course, if patients met specified safety and compliance criteria. Dose reduction to 40 mg/day (if applicable), 30 mg/day, or 20 mg/day, was required in the presence of known drug-related adverse events.

Erlotinib

Patients administered 150 mg film-coated tablet once daily orally, with dose reduction to 100 mg/day or 50 mg/day in the presence of known drug-related adverse events.
