Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Objective Tumor Response
Time Frame: baseline to measured progressive disease (eight 21-day cycles of therapy and follow-up period was 24 months starting from the date of the last drug administration. Data collected every 4 months.)
Best response recorded from the start of treatment until disease progression/recurrence using World Health Organization (WHO) criteria that defines when participants improve ("respond"), stay the same ("stable"), or worsen ("progression") during treatment.
baseline to measured progressive disease (eight 21-day cycles of therapy and follow-up period was 24 months starting from the date of the last drug administration. Data collected every 4 months.)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Duration of Response
Time Frame: first documented complete or partial response to measured progressive disease (eight 21-day cycles of therapy and follow-up period was 24 months starting from the date of the last drug administration.)
The duration of a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) was defined as the time from first objective status assessment of CR or PR to the first time of progression or death as a result of any cause.
first documented complete or partial response to measured progressive disease (eight 21-day cycles of therapy and follow-up period was 24 months starting from the date of the last drug administration.)
Time to Progressive Disease
Time Frame: first active treatment dose to measured progressive disease (eight 21-day cycles of therapy and follow-up period was 24 months starting from the date of the last drug administration.)
Defined as the time from study enrollment to the first date of disease progression.
first active treatment dose to measured progressive disease (eight 21-day cycles of therapy and follow-up period was 24 months starting from the date of the last drug administration.)
Time to Treatment Failure
Time Frame: first active treatment dose to last contact for patients, death as a result of any cause, or early discontinuation of treatment (eight 21-day cycles of therapy and follow-up period was 24 months starting from the date of the last drug administration.)
Defined as the time from study enrollment to the first observation of disease progression, death as a result of any cause, or early discontinuation of treatment.
first active treatment dose to last contact for patients, death as a result of any cause, or early discontinuation of treatment (eight 21-day cycles of therapy and follow-up period was 24 months starting from the date of the last drug administration.)
Survival Time
Time Frame: first active treatment dose to date of death due to any cause (eight 21-day cycles of therapy and follow-up period was 24 months starting from the date of the last drug administration.)
Overall survival is the duration from enrollment to death due to any cause.
first active treatment dose to date of death due to any cause (eight 21-day cycles of therapy and follow-up period was 24 months starting from the date of the last drug administration.)
Number of Participants With Maximum Common Toxicity Criteria-National Cancer Institute Toxicity (CTC-NCI) of Gemcitabine-Cisplatin Combination
Time Frame: Baseline up to 30 days after last dose of study drug (eight 21-day cycles of therapy)
The CTC provides descriptive terminology for adverse event reporting. A grading (severity) scale is provided for each adverse event term. Grades range from 0 (none) to 5 (death).
Baseline up to 30 days after last dose of study drug (eight 21-day cycles of therapy)
Number of Participants With Hematology Maximum Common Toxicity Criteria - National Cancer Institute Grades
Time Frame: Baseline up to 30 days after last dose of study drug (eight 21-day cycles of therapy)
Maximum CTC-NCI toxicity grade for hematology. Grades range from 0 (none) to 5 (death).
Baseline up to 30 days after last dose of study drug (eight 21-day cycles of therapy)
Number of Deaths
Time Frame: Baseline through follow-up (eight 21-day cycles of therapy and follow-up period was 24 months starting from the date of the last drug administration.)
Baseline through follow-up (eight 21-day cycles of therapy and follow-up period was 24 months starting from the date of the last drug administration.)
Number of Participants With Adverse Events Leading to Discontinuation
Time Frame: Baseline through eight 21-day cycles
Baseline through eight 21-day cycles
