  • The participant has the ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document

Exclusion Criteria:

  • The participant has brain metastases
  • The participant has acute hepatitis
  • The participant has poorly controlled diabetes mellitus. Participants with a history of diabetes mellitus are allowed to participate, provided that their blood glucose is within normal range and that they are on a stable dietary or therapeutic regimen for this condition
  • The participant has congestive heart failure > class II New York Heart Association (NYHA), unstable angina pectoris, new onset of angina pectoris, myocardial infarction within the past 6 months, or cardiac ventricular arrhythmias requiring antiarrhythmic therapy
  • The participant has experienced a hemorrhage or bleeding event ≥ National Cancer Institute-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) Grade 3 within 4 weeks prior first dose of study therapy

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Progression Free Survival (PFS)
Time Frame: Date of first dose of study drug up PD or death up to 12 months
PFS is defined as the time from date of first dose of study drug until the date of objective PD or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. PD defined as a ≥20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions using as reference the smallest sum LD since baseline or ≥1 new lesions. Participants who died without PD were considered to have progressed on the date of death. Participants who were alive and without PD were censored at the time of the last objective tumor assessment. Participants who did not progress and are subsequently lost to follow-up were censored at the date of their last objective tumor assessment before loss to follow-up. Participants who progressed or died after ≥2 missed tumor assessment visits were censored at the date of their last objective tumor assessment before missed assessments. Participants who begin a new anticancer therapy were censored at the date of their last objective tumor assessment before initiation of new therapy.
Date of first dose of study drug up PD or death up to 12 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.

Percentage of Participants With Complete Response (CR) and Partial Response (PR) [Objective Response Rate (ORR)]
Time Frame: Date of first dose of study drug to PD up to 12 months
Response was defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST, version 1.0) criteria. CR was defined as the disappearance of all target and nontarget lesions and the normalization of tumor marker levels. PR was defined as having a ≥30% decrease in the sum of LD of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum LD. Participants who did not have a tumor response assessment for any reason were considered nonresponders and were included in the denominator when calculating the response rate. Percentage of participants was calculated as: CR + PR / total number of participants in the treatment group * 100.
Date of first dose of study drug to PD up to 12 months
Overall Survival (OS)
Time Frame: Date of first dose of study drug to date of death up to 22 months
OS was defined as the time from the date of first dose of study drug to the date of death from any cause. If the participant was alive at the end of the follow-up period or was lost to follow-up, OS was censored on the last date the participant was known to be alive.
Date of first dose of study drug to date of death up to 22 months
Time to Disease Progression (TTP)
Time Frame: Date of first dose of study drug to date of PD up to 12 months
TTP is defined as the time from the date of first dose of study drug until the date of objective disease progression. Participants without PD were censored at the time of the last objective tumor assessment. Participants who did not progress and lost to follow-up were censored at the date of the last objective tumor assessment before loss to follow-up. Participants who began new anticancer therapy prior to PD or death were censored at date of last tumor assessment prior to new therapy. Participants who died or had PD after ≥2 missed tumor assessments were censored at date of last tumor assessment prior to the missed assessments.
Date of first dose of study drug to date of PD up to 12 months
Duration of Response (DOR)
Time Frame: Date of first occurrence of CR or PR to first date of PD or death up to 8 months
Duration of CR or PR was defined as time from first objective assessment of CR or PR until first date of PD or death from any cause. Response was defined using RECIST v 1.0 criteria. CR was defined as disappearance of all target and nontarget lesions and normalization of tumor marker levels. PR was defined as a ≥30% decrease in the sum of LD of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum LD. PD defined as a ≥20% increase in the sum of LD of target lesions using as reference the smallest sum LD since baseline or ≥1 new lesions. Participants with no PD, who discontinued treatment for toxicity or a reason other than PD, or were lost to follow-up, were censored at date of last tumor assessment. Participants who began new anticancer therapy prior to PD or death were censored at date of last tumor assessment prior to new therapy. Participants who died or had PD after ≥2 missed tumor assessments were censored at date of last tumor assessment prior to the missed assessments
Date of first occurrence of CR or PR to first date of PD or death up to 8 months
The Number of Participants With Serum Anti-Cixutumumab Antibody Assessment (Immunogenicity)
Time Frame: Predose, immediately prior to the first Cycle 3 and Cycle 5 infusions (3-week cycle) and 30 days after last dose of study drug
A participant's serum sample was considered positive for antibodies against cixutumumab if it exhibited a post-treatment antibody level that exceeded the positive upper cut point determined from the anti-cixutumumab level seen in healthy untreated individuals. A participant was considered to have an anti-cixutumumab response if there were 2 consecutive positive samples or if the final sample tested was positive.
