Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - LCL161
Treatment: Drugs - paclitaxel

Experimental: Paclitaxel with LCL161 - Patients randomized to the experimental arm received paclitaxel 80 mg/m2 weekly + LECL161 1800 mg once weekly for 12 weeks. Equal numbers of patients with gene expression signature positive and negative disease were included in each treatment arm.

Active comparator: Paclitaxel without LCL161 - Patients randomized to the control arm received paclitaxel 80 mg/m2 weekly for 12 weeks. Equal numbers of patients with gene expression signature positive and negative disease were included in each treatment arm.


Treatment: Drugs: LCL161
LCL161 was available as 300 mg, tablets, which was supplied in child-resistant bottles.

Treatment: Drugs: paclitaxel
Commercially available paclitaxel was sourced locally by each study site. Generic paclitaxel could be used for study treatment.
