1.  Primary:   Percentage of Participants With Objective Response (OR)   [ Time Frame: Baseline until the date of first documented progression or discontinuation from the study due to any cause, assessed every 8 weeks up to 147 weeks ]

Measure Type Primary
Measure Title Percentage of Participants With Objective Response (OR)
Measure Description Percentage of participants with OR based assessment of confirmed complete response (CR) or confirmed partial response (PR) according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). Confirmed responses are those that persist on repeat imaging study at least 4 weeks after initial documentation of response. CR are defined as the disappearance of all lesions (target and/or non target). PR are those with at least 30 percent (%) decrease in the sum of the longest dimensions of the target lesions taking as a reference the baseline sum longest dimensions.
Time Frame Baseline until the date of first documented progression or discontinuation from the study due to any cause, assessed every 8 weeks up to 147 weeks  
Safety Issue No  

Population Description

2.  Secondary:   Progression-free Survival (PFS)   [ Time Frame: Baseline until the date of first documented progression or death due to any cause, assessed every 8 weeks up to 147 weeks ]

Measure Type Secondary
Measure Title Progression-free Survival (PFS)
Measure Description Time in days from start of study treatment to first documentation of objective tumor progression or death due to any cause. PFS was calculated as first event date minus the date of first dose of study medication plus 1. Tumor progression was determined from oncologic assessment data (where data meet the criteria for progressive disease [PD]), or from adverse event (AE) data (where the outcome was "Death").
Time Frame Baseline until the date of first documented progression or death due to any cause, assessed every 8 weeks up to 147 weeks

3.  Secondary:   Duration of Response (DR)   [ Time Frame: Baseline until the date of first documented progression or discontinuation from the study due to any cause, assessed every 8 weeks up to 147 weeks ]

Measure Type Secondary
Measure Title Duration of Response (DR)
Measure Description Time in days from the first documentation of objective tumor response to objective tumor progression or death due to any cause. Duration of tumor response was calculated as the date of the first documentation of objective tumor progression or death due to cancer minus the date of the first CR or PR that was subsequently confirmed plus 1. DR was calculated for the subgroup of participants with a confirmed objective tumor response.
Time Frame Baseline until the date of first documented progression or discontinuation from the study due to any cause, assessed every 8 weeks up to 147 weeks  
Safety Issue No

4.  Secondary:   Overall Survival (OS)   [ Time Frame: Baseline to death due to any cause or at least 1 year after the initial dose for the last treated participant ]

Measure Type Secondary
Measure Title Overall Survival (OS)
Measure Description Time in days from the start of study treatment to date of death due to any cause. OS was calculated as the death date minus the date of first dose of study medication plus 1. Death was determined from AE data (where outcome was death) or from follow-up contact data (where the participant current status was death). For participants who were alive, overall survival was censored at the last contact.
Time Frame Baseline to death due to any cause or at least 1 year after the initial dose for the last treated participant

5.  Other Pre-specified:   Population Pharmacokinetics for Axitinib (AG-013736) Plasma Concentrations   [ Time Frame: Day 1 (pre-dose), Day 29, Day 57 and then every 8 weeks up to 147 weeks ]

Measure Type Other Pre-specified
Measure Title Population Pharmacokinetics for Axitinib (AG-013736) Plasma Concentrations
Measure Description Population pharmacokinetic analysis involved mixed effects modeling using nonlinear mixed effects modeling (NONMEM) software. The intent of this analysis was to establish a basic population pharmacokinetic model for axitinib (AG-013736) and to determine inter-individual and residual variability in population (oral) clearance, and volume of distribution of drug. Relationship of demographic variables (gender, age, body weight, height and ethnicity), concomitant medications and measures of altered hepatic and renal function were examined by fitting measured axitinib (AG-013736) concentrations.
Time Frame Day 1 (pre-dose), Day 29, Day 57 and then every 8 weeks up to 147 weeks  
Safety Issue No

Population pharmacokinetic values were not summarized as descriptive statistics since the data was not available for the single study and data for all the axitinib (AG-013736) Phase 2 studies would be pooled together in a separate report.

Measure Description Plasma concentrations of soluble proteins (vascular endothelial growth factor [VEGF], placental growth factor [PlGF] and soluble vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 [sVEGFR2]) may be associated with tumor angiogenesis or tumor physiology and may correlate with efficacy or biological activity. It is presented as ratio to baseline, which is obtained by dividing the plasma soluble protein concentration at each time point by its concentration at baseline.

Limitations and Caveats
Limitations of the study, such as early termination leading to small numbers of participants analyzed and technical problems with measurement leading to unreliable or uninterpretable data
Population pharmacokinetic and plasma concentrations of soluble proteins were not presented, as the data was not available for the single study and data for all the axitinib (AG-013736) Phase 2 studies would be pooled together in a separate report.
