Predictive value of clinical judgment of tumour progression in phase II trials.
<h4>Background</h4>The diagnosis of tumour progression or progressive disease (PD) is a key element for designing and interpreting contemporary phase II trials. In some cases, PD is stated by the physician and is not formally confirmed by imaging.<h4>Purpose</h4>In this study...
