What was measured

Non-progression rate (NPR) at 27 weeks was defined as the percentage of efficacy evaluable patients who were alive and progression-free at 27 weeks as assessed by irRECIST Progression is defined using immune-related Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (irRECIST), as an increase ≥ 20% (minimum 5 mm) in total measured tumor burden compared with nadir or progression of non-target lesions or new lesion

Analysis population: All patients who have received at least 1 dose of study medication with at least 1on-study tumor assessment were included in the analysis. If a patient discontinued before the first radiological assessment due to progression, they were included in the analysis. If the patient discontinued before 27 weeks due to reasons other than progression or death, they were considered non evaluable for this endpoint. One patient enrolled in the ACC cohort was excluded due to change in diagnosis.
