Primary outcomes with a statistical analysis

  1. Complete Remission Rate (Expressed as Percentage of Patients in Complete Remission) at 18 Months Post-RAI Treatment; ITT Analysis Set

    Percentage of participants
    • Selumetinib 75 mg BD + RAI vs Placebo + RAISuperiority

      Selumetinib in combination with RAI was compared with placebo in combination with RAI. The analysis was performed using a logistic regression model including treatment as the only covariate. An odds ratio \>1 favours selumetinib in combination with RAI.

Serious adverse events

Time frame: Includes adverse events (AEs) with an onset date on or after the date of first dose and up to and including 30 days following the date of last dose of selumetinib/placebo. Overall timeframe for collection of AEs was up to 66 days from the first dose.
