Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Progression-free survival (central imaging assessment)
Secondary outcome measures
Evaluate the efficacy in participants treated with infigratinib versus gemcitabine with cisplatin by best overall response (BOR) determined by blinded independent central assessment and the investigator.
Evaluate the efficacy in participants treated with infigratinib versus gemcitabine with cisplatin by disease control rate (PR+CR+SD) determined by blinded independent central assessment and the investigator.
Evaluate the efficacy in participants treated with infigratinib versus gemcitabine with cisplatin by duration of response (DOR) determined by blinded independent central assessment and the investigator.
