What was measured

ORR was defined as the proportion of randomized participants with a best overall response (BOR) of confirmed complete or partial response per BICR using RECIST v1.1. BOR was assessed from randomization until documented progression, start of palliative local or subsequent anti-cancer therapy-whichever came first. If none occurred, all response data contributed to BOR. For those treated beyond progression, BOR was based on responses before initial RECIST-defined progression. PD-L1 expression was measured via Dako PD-L1 IHC 28-8 pharmDx test as the percentage of tumor cells with membrane staining among ≥100 evaluable cells. Expression was categorized as ≥1%, \<1%, not quantifiable, ≥50%, or 1-49%.
