Progression-Free Survival (PFS)
PFS is defined as the time from the first day of lenvatinib oral administration to progression or death.
Objective Response Rate (ORR)
ORR is defined as the percentage of patients who have achieved complete response (CR) or partial response (PR), as measured by modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (mRECIST) criteria.
Disease Control Rate (DCR)
DCR is defined as the percentage of patients who have achieved CR, PR or stable disease(SD), as measured by mRECIST criteria.
ncidence of Adverse Events (AE)
The percentage of patients who suffer adverse events from the first day of lenvatinib oral administration to last follow-up, assessed by the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v5.0.
