Primary Outcome(s)
Serious Adverse Events related to Nimotuzumab (Adverse events classified as “serious” and with a causality relationship classified as “very likely, likely or possible” with the nimotuzumab). Measuring time: every 3 months until 24 months.
Secondary Outcome(s)
Regarding to Safety
1. Adverse events (AEs). Measurement time: every 3 months until 24 months. The AEs will be measured by:
Type of EA (Name of EA)
a) Seriousness of EA (Serious, not serious)
b) EA intensity (mild, moderate, severe, threatening or disabling the patient's life and death)
c) Causal relationship (very likely, likely, possible, unlikely, unrelated or non-evaluable)
d) Attitude followed by the appearance of EA (temporary or permanent interruption, dose modification, unchanged)
e) Treatment of AE (name of treatment indicated)
f) Outcome of AE (reversible effect, irreversible effect, death or loss of patient follow-up)
g) Batch of nimotuzumab (a batch number of nimotuzumab)
2. Clinical laboratory tests (values of every test parameter classified as “normal, not clinically significant and clinically significant”). Measuring time: before the CT cycle and, them every 3 months until 24 months.
Regarding to effectiveness
1. Global survival (Time from recruitment until death from any cause. If not possible to assess the death of the patient, it will record the last patient news in the clinical health record). Measurement time: 6, 12, 18 y 24 months.
2. Progression-free survival (Time from treatment begin until objective tumor progression or death). Measurement time: 6, 12, 18 y 24 months.
3. Antitumor response (It will be evaluated like “Complete response, partial response, stable disease, disease progression” according to RECIST version 1.1 criteria). Measurement time: every 3 months after treatment begins until 24 months
