What was measured

PFS is defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of the first radiologically documented disease progression (as assessed by BIRC per RECIST 1.1) or death due to any cause. A patient who had not progressed or died at the date of the analysis cut-off or had received another anticancer therapy had their PFS censored at the time of the last adequate tumor evaluation before the earlier of the cut-off date or the anticancer therapy date. The distribution of PFS was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier (KM) method.

Analysis population: The Full Analysis Set (FAS) consisted of all patients to whom study treatment had been assigned by randomization.

Groups in this outcome

Ceritinib

Ceritinib administered continuously through oral dosing at a dosage of 750 mg once daily in fasted state

Chemotherapy

Pemetrexed plus cisplatin or carboplatin (based on Investigator's choice) for 4 cycles (Induction) followed by pemetrexed as single agent (Maintenance)
