What was measured

EORTC QLQ-C30 is a 30-item cancer-specific instrument that assesses participant reported outcomes, consisting of 5 functional scales, 3 symptoms scales, a global health status/quality of life (QOL) scale, and 6 single-item scales. The global health status/QOL scale has 7 possible scores of responses (1=very poor to 7=excellent). All other items have 4 possible scores (1=not at all, 2=a little, 3=quite a bit, 4=very much). A linear transformation was applied to the raw scores so that all transformed scores lie between 0 to 100, with 0 being the worst and 100 being the best for global health status/QOL and functional scales, and 0 being the best and 100 being the worst for symptoms scales. In this study, global health status/QOL scale score was identified as the primary patient-reported outcome variable of interest. Physical functioning, emotional functioning, and social functioning scale scores were considered as secondary. Higher scores indicate better quality of life.

Analysis population: Analysis population included all randomized participants (228 participants in MEK162 group, 113 participants in physician's choice group).

Groups in this outcome

MEK 162

Participants received an oral dose of 45 milligram (mg) of MEK162 tablets (3 tablets of 15 mg) twice daily for each 28-day treatment cycle until disease progression, withdrawal of consent, initiation of subsequent anticancer therapy, lost to follow-up or death, whichever occurred first. Participants were followed up to 30 days after last dose of study intervention.

Physician's Choice

Participants received chemotherapies as per treating physician's choice in accordance to the institutional standard of care. Participants received one of the three intravenous (IV) infusion therapies: Liposomal doxorubicin 40 milligram per meter square (mg/m\^2) on Day 1 of each 28-day cycle or Paclitaxel 80 mg/m\^2 on Days 1, 8, and 15 of each 28-day cycle or, Topotecan 1.25 mg/m\^2 on Days 1 through 5 of each 21-day cycle. Participants were followed up to 30 days after last dose of study intervention.

description
EORTC QLQ-C30 is a 30-item cancer-specific instrument that assesses participant reported outcomes, consisting of 5 functional scales, 3 symptoms scales, a global health status/quality of life (QOL) scale, and 6 single-item scales. The global health status/QOL scale has 7 possible scores of responses (1=very poor to 7=excellent). All other items have 4 possible scores (1=not at all, 2=a little, 3=quite a bit, 4=very much). A linear transformation was applied to the raw scores so that all transformed scores lie between 0 to 100, with 0 being the worst and 100 being the best for global health status/QOL and functional scales, and 0 being the best and 100 being the worst for symptoms scales. In this study, global health status/QOL scale score was identified as the primary patient-reported outcome variable of interest. Physical functioning, emotional functioning, and social functioning scale scores were considered as secondary. Higher scores indicate better quality of life.
