Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Phase 1 - Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Carboplatin
MTD was defined as a dose at which the occurrence of at least 2 dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) was observed. DLT was defined as any of the following events occurring during the entire radiation therapy (RT) course, including a 2-week recovery period following completion of RT: Grade 4 neutropenia (<0.5 x 10^9 cells per liter) lasting >7 days, febrile neutropenia; ≥Grade 3 neutropenia with fever >38.5 degrees Celsius (°C), Grade 4 thrombocytopenia, Grade 3 thrombocytopenia with ≥Grade 2 bleeding, ≥Grade 3 nonhematologic toxicity (excluding nausea, vomiting, and transaminase elevations) and ≥Grade 3 pulmonary or esophageal toxicity (radiation-related pneumonitis or esophagitis).
Phase 1 - Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Cisplatin
MTD was defined as a dose at which the occurrence of at least 2 dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) was observed. DLT was defined as any of the following events occurring during the entire radiation therapy (RT) course, including a 2-week recovery period following completion of RT: Grade 4 neutropenia (<0.5 x 10^9 cells per liter) lasting >7 days, febrile neutropenia; ≥Grade 3 neutropenia with fever >38.5 degrees Celsius (°C), Grade 4 thrombocytopenia, Grade 3 thrombocytopenia with ≥Grade 2 bleeding, ≥Grade 3 nonhematologic toxicity (excluding nausea, vomiting, and transaminase elevations) and ≥Grade 3 pulmonary or esophageal toxicity (radiation-related pneumonitis or esophagitis).
Phase 2 - Survival Probability at 2 Years
Secondary Outcome Measures
Phase 1 - Pharmacology Toxicity: Number of Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs)
Phase 1 pharmacology toxicity was defined as the number of participants experiencing dose limiting toxicities (DLTs). DLT was defined as any of the following events occurring during the entire radiation therapy (RT) course: Grade 4 neutropenia (<0.5 x 10^9 cells per liter) >7 days, febrile neutropenia, ≥Grade 3 neutropenia with fever >38.5 degrees Celsius (°C), Grade 4 thrombocytopenia, Grade 3 thrombocytopenia with ≥Grade 2 bleeding, ≥Grade 3 nonhematologic toxicity (excluding nausea, vomiting, and transaminase elevations), and ≥Grade 3 pulmonary or esophageal toxicity (radiation-related pneumonitis or esophagitis). Grade 5 events are the events leading to the death.
Phase 1 - Percentage of Participants With Complete Response or Partial Response (Response Rate)
Response rate is the percentage of participants with complete response (CR) or partial response (PR), as assessed according to the Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) guidelines. CR is disappearance of all target and non-target lesions; PR is ≥30% decrease in sum of longest diameter of target lesions. Response rate is calculated as a total number of participants with CR or PR divided by the total number of participants treated multiplied by 100.
Phase 2 - Pharmacology Toxicity: Number of Participants With Adverse Events
Phase 2 pharmacology toxicity was defined as the number of participants who experienced serious adverse events or all other nonserious adverse events during the study. A summary of serious adverse events and other nonserious adverse events is located in the Reported Adverse Events section.
Phase 2 - Time to Progression
Time to disease progression was measured from randomization of Study Phase 2 to the first observation of disease progression according to the Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria. Disease progression is ≥20% increase in sum of longest diameter of target lesions and/or a new lesion.
Phase 2 - Median Survival
Phase 2 - Percentage of Participants With Complete Response or Partial Response (Response Rate)
Response rate is the percentage of participants with complete response (CR) or partial response (PR), as assessed according to the Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) guidelines. CR is disappearance of all target and non-target lesions; PR is ≥30% decrease in sum of longest diameter of target lesions. Response rate is calculated as a total number of participants with CR or PR divided by the total number of participants treated multiplied by 100.
