Trial Design

4Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Placebo Group
Group I: Phase 2: Olaratumab + Gemcitabine + DocetaxelExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
Participants received intravenous infusions of olaratumab loading dose 20 mg/kg on days 1, 8 of cycle 1 followed by 15 mg/kg on days 1, 8 of all subsequent cycles in combination with gemcitabine 900 mg/m\^2 on days 1, 8 and docetaxel 75 mg/m\^2 on day 8 of a 21-day cycle until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, death, or other discontinuation criteria were met. This cohort is a combination of participants who never received olaratumab (olaratumab-naive) and who received commercially available olaratumab (olaratumab pre-treated) prior to enrollment.
Group II: Phase 1b: Cohort 2 overall - 20 mg/kg Olaratumab + Gemcitabine + DocetaxelExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
Participants received intravenous infusions of olaratumab 20 mg/kg on days 1, 8 in combination with gemcitabine 900 mg/m\^2 on days 1, 8 and docetaxel 75 mg/m\^2 on day 8 of a 21-day cycle until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, death, or other discontinuation criteria were met (cohort 2). Following a protocol amendment, additional participants were enrolled into this group to confirm the safety of the 20 mg/kg dose level prior to opening the Phase 2 (cohort 2 expansion).
Group III: Phase 1b: Cohort 1 - 15 mg/kg Olaratumab + Gemcitabine + DocetaxelExperimental Treatment3 Interventions
Participants received intravenous infusions of olaratumab 15 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) on days 1, 8 plus gemcitabine 900 milligrams per meter square (mg/m\^2) on days 1, 8 plus docetaxel 75 mg/m\^2 on day 8 of a 21-day cycle until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, death, or other discontinuation criteria were met.
Group IV: Phase 2: Placebo + Gemcitabine + DocetaxelPlacebo Group3 Interventions
Participants received intravenous infusions of placebo on days 1, 8 in combination with gemcitabine 900 mg/m\^2 on days 1, 8 and docetaxel 75 mg/m\^2 on day 8 of a 21-day cycle until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, death, or other discontinuation criteria were met. This cohort is a combination of participants who never received olaratumab (olaratumab-naive) and who received commercially available olaratumab (olaratumab pre-treated) prior to enrollment.
