Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Event Free Survival (RT2)

Failure events are: * Relapse or progression of existing disease, or occurrence of disease at new sites, * Death from any cause without disease progression, * Second malignant neoplasm

Time frame
From randomisation to first failure event, timeframe 36 months
2

Event Free Survival (CT1A)

Failure events are: * Relapse or progression of existing disease, or occurrence of disease at new sites, * Death from any cause without disease progression, * Second malignant neoplasm

Time frame
From randomisation to first failure event, timeframe 36 months
3

Event Free Survival (CT1B)

Failure events are: * Relapse or progression of existing disease, or occurrence of disease at new sites, * Death from any cause without disease progression, * Second malignant neoplasm

Time frame
From randomisation to first failure event, timeframe 36 months
4

Event Free Survival (CT2A)

Failure events are: * Relapse or progression of existing disease, or occurrence of disease at new sites, * Death from any cause without disease progression, * Second malignant neoplasm

Time frame
From randomisation to first failure event, timeframe 36 months

Secondary outcomes

1

Recommended Phase II Dose (Phase 1b)

Based on tolerability, where tolerability is evaluated through the occurrence of dose limiting toxicity (DLT).

Time frame
From first patient first visit in dose finding study until appropriate dose level found, estimated 9 months
2

Maximum Tolerated Dose (Phase 1b)

Dose level at which no or one participant experiences a DLT when at least two of three to six participants experience a DLT at the next highest dose.

Time frame
From first patient first visit in dose finding study until appropriate dose level
3

Toxicity (All chemotherapy randomisations)

Categorised and graded using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events

Time frame
From date of protocol defined treatment until 30 days after the administration of the last treatment
4

Dose Limiting Toxicity (Phase 1b)

Diarrhoea: Grade 3 for \>3 days despite loperamide therapy Diarrhoea: Grade 4 despite loperamide therapy. Enterocolitis: Grade 3 or above Ileus: Grade 3 or above for more than 3 days Oral mucositis: Grade 3 above for \>3 days despite optimal supportive care Persistent neutropenia or thrombocytopenia leading to delay of start of next course by \>7 days; i.e. starting \> day 28 Any grade 3 or 4 toxicity resulting in discontinuation of the new combination Any grade 5 toxicity

Time frame
From commencement of treatment until 21 days after the start of cycle 2 (each cycle is 21 days)
