The study will have a Run-in portion and an Expansion portion. The Run-in portion will be
used to evaluate the safety profile of the PEGCISGEM and PEGCISGEMATEZO treatments prior to
evaluating the efficacy and safety of PEGCISGEM and PEGCISGEMATEZO treatments compared with
CISGEM treatment in the Expansion portion of the study. Treatment in both portions of the
study will continue until death, withdrawal of consent from the study, disease progression,
or unacceptable toxicity.

| Safety Issue: | |
| Description: | An AE is any unfavorable or unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a pharmaceutical product (for example, study drug), whether or not considered related to the pharmaceutical product. Serious adverse event (SAE) was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. AEs included both SAEs and non-serious AEs. A summary of other non-serious AEs and all SAEs, regardless of causality is located in the 'Reported AE section'. |

Progressive disease (PD) was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum of diameters on or prior to the current assessment (including baseline). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum of diameters must also demonstrate an absolute increase of greater than or equal to (≥) 5 mm. |
