After 640 deaths have occurred on study
Secondary outcome [1] 263829 0
To compare progression-free survival between the two arms using Computerised Tomography (CT) scans
Timepoint [1] 263829 0
At the end of cycle 1, end of cycle 2, the end of every 2nd cycle of treatment (eg cycle 2, 4, 6 until protocol therapy has ceased, then every 12 weeks after protocol therapy has ceased until disease progression occurs
Secondary outcome [2] 263831 0
To compare objective response rates between the two arms using CT scans
Timepoint [2] 263831 0
At the end of cycle 1, end of cycle 2, the end of every 2nd cycle of treatment (eg cycle 2, 4, 6 until protocol therapy has ceased, then every 12 weeks after protocol therapy has ceased until disease progression occurs
Secondary outcome [3] 263832 0
To estimate time to response and response duration using CT scans
Timepoint [3] 263832 0
At the end of cycle 1, end of cycle 2, the end of every 2nd cycle of treatment (eg cycle 2, 4, 6 until protocol therapy has ceased, then every 12 weeks after protocol therapy has ceased until disease progression occurs
Secondary outcome [4] 263833 0
To evaluate the nature,severity and frequency of toxicities between the two arms using patient reporting of adverse events and blood analysis
Timepoint [4] 263833 0
Continuously throughout the study - assessed on day 1 of each cycle (4 weeks) until the end of protocol therapy, 4 weeks after the end of protocol therapy and then every 12 weeks until patient death
Secondary outcome [5] 263834 0
To compare quality of life between the two arms using a validated quality of life questionnaire (QLQ-C30)
Timepoint [5] 263834 0
At baseline, at the start of each treatment cycle, 4 weeks after completion of study treatment, and every 12 weeks after completion of study treatment until patient death
