    Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions.

    Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR Baseline is defined as the last non-missing measurement prior to the first dosing date and time.

  2. Duration of Response (DOR)
