What was measured

TTP rate is defined as the percentage of participants without disease progression at select time points (milestones) during the study. Progressive Disease (PD): At least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5mm (Note: The appearance of 1or more new lesions is also considered progression).

Analysis population: All treated participants for Cohort 1, 2, and 5, and all randomized participants for Cohort 3, 4 and 6. Uninfected HCC, HCV-infected, and HBV-infected participants were pre-specified to be reported together for Cohort 1.
