BORR is defined as the number of patients whose global best overall response (BOR) was complete (CR) or partial response (PR), divided by the total number of participants who received treatment. CR=complete disappearance of all index lesions. PR=decrease, relative to baseline, of 50% or greater in the sum of the products of the 2 largest perpendicular diameters of all index lesions. The global BOR is the best overall response (OR) designation over the study as a whole for an individual in the study based on overall tumor burden. Both central nervous system (CNS) (brain lesions) and non-CNS compartments (lesions outside the brain) are considered for the global BOR. For the analysis of global BOR of CR or PR (by both modified WHO criteria and immune-related response criteria [irRC]), the OR assessment must be confirmed by a second (confirmatory) evaluation meeting the criteria for response and must be performed no less than 4 weeks after the criteria for response are first met.

DOR is defined in patients whose global best overall response is complete (CR) or partial response (PR) as the time between the date of response of confirmed CR or PR, whichever occurs first, and the date of progressive disease or death, whichever occurs first. For patients who remain alive and have not progressed following response, duration of response will be censored on the date of last evaluable tumor assessment.

PFS is defined as the time between the date of the first dose of study therapy and the date of progression or death, whichever occurs first. A patient who dies without reported prior progression will be considered to have progressed on the date of death. For those who remain alive and have not progressed, PFS will be censored on the date of last evaluable tumor assessment. Participants who have not died and have no recorded postbaseline tumor assessment will be censored on the date of first dose of study therapy. Those who die without any recorded postbaseline tumor assessment will be considered to have progressed on the date of death.

OS is defined as the time from the first dose of study drug until the date of death. Overall survival rate is the percentage of participants known to be alive at a timepoint. For those patients who did not die, OS was censored at the recorded last date of patient contact, and those with a missing recorded last date of contact will be censored at the last date the patient was known to be alive. The survival rate at a specified time-point is the probability that a patient is alive at that time following randomization. The rate is calculated for each treatment group using the Kaplan-Meier product-limit method. A corresponding 2-sided 95% bootstrap confidence interval will be calculated.

AE=any new unfavorable symptom, sign, or disease or worsening of a preexisting condition that may not have a causal relationship with treatment. SAE=a medical event that at any dose results in death, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or drug dependency/abuse; is life-threatening, an important medical event, or a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or requires or prolongs hospitalization. Treatment-related=having certain, probable, possible, or missing relationship to study drug. Grade (Gr) 1=Mild, Gr 2=Moderate, Gr 3=Severe, Gr 4=Life-threatening or disabling, Gr 5=Death.

Onset of response is defined as the time between the first dose of study therapy and the date when measurement criteria are first met for global best overall response of partial (PR) or complete (CR), whichever occurs first. CR=complete disappearance of all index lesions. PR=decrease, relative to baseline, of 50% or greater in the sum of the 2 largest perpendicular diameters of all index lesions.

OS is defined as the time from date of first dose of study drug until the date of death. For those patients who did not die, OS was censored at the recorded last date of patient contact, and those missing a recorded last date of contact will be censored at the last date the patient was known to be alive.

Participants who required concurrent systemic corticosteroid therapy for adequate control of neurologic signs and symptoms related to metastatic brain lesion received ipilimumab,10 mg/kg, as a 90-minute IV infusion every 3 weeks (Weeks 1, 4, 7, and 10) during the Induction Phase. Those eligible (patients who did not discontinue due to toxicity, did not show progression at 24 weeks, and who remained clinically stable) for the Maintenance Phase continued to receive ipilimumab, 10 mg/kg IV every 12 weeks, beginning at Week 24.
