Apparent Volume of Distribution at Steady State (Vss) of Gemcitabine
Description
Volume of distribution was defined as the theoretical volume in which the total amount of drug would need to be uniformly distributed to produce the desired blood concentration of a drug. Steady state volume of distribution (Vss) was the apparent volume of distribution at steady-state. This outcome was applicable for only combination arm in which evofosfamide was administered along with gemcitabine.

Title
Apparent Volume of Distribution During Terminal Phase (Vz) of Evofosfamide
Description
Apparent volume of distribution during the terminal phase, calculated as Vz = Dose/AUC0-inf multiplied by elimination rate constant [λz]) following single dose. Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity, calculated (AUC0-inf) as AUC0-t + AUCextra. AUCextra represents an extrapolated value obtained by Clast / λz, where Clast is the calculated serum concentration at the last sampling time point at which the measured plasma concentration is at or above lower limit of quantification (LLQ) and λz is the elimination rate constant. And the elimination rate constant obtained from linear regression of the terminal phase of the log transformed concentration-time data.

Best Overall Response (BOR)
Description
BOR was determined according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1). BOR was defined as the best response of any of the confirmed complete response (CR), confirmed partial response (PR), stable disease (SD) and progressive disease (PD). CR: Disappearance of all evidence of target and non-target lesions. PR: At least 30% reduction from baseline in the sum of the longest diameter (SLD) of all lesions. Stable disease (SD)=Neither sufficient increase to qualify for PD nor sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR. PD was defined as at least a 20 percent (%) increase in the SLD, taking as reference the smallest SLD recorded from baseline or the appearance of 1 or more new lesions. Number of participants with CR, PR, SD and PD were reported.
