Frequently Asked Questions
What are the intended outcomes of this experiment?
"As outlined by the clinical trial sponsor, Novartis, this experiment will be gauging its primary outcome -- Proportion of participants with reported dose limiting toxicity (DLT) (Phase I) -- over a 12 month period. Secondary outcomes include: Proportion of participants with treatment-emergent adverse events (Phase I), Overall survival (OS) (Phase Ib), and Median Progression Free Survival (PFS) (Phase Ib). These are respectively defined as proportion of patients exhibiting Adverse Events graded via NCI CTCAE version 5.0 in Phase Ib; 1+ days from first drug dosage to death due to any"
