- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Immune-related Progression-free Survival (irPFS) in Participants With Nonsmall-cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Per Immune-related Response Criteria (irRC) Tumor assessed at screening, every 6 weeks on treatment to Week 24, and every 12 weeks on maintenance until immune-related Progressive Disease (irPD) or death (of censored, maximum reached: 16.5 months) irPFS is defined as the time between the randomization date and date of immune-related Progressive Disease (irPD) (at least 25% increase percentage change in total tumor burden, including new lesions) or death, whichever occurs first. For patients with no recorded postbaseline tumor assessments, irPFS is censored at randomization. Participant who die without reported irPD are considered to have progressed on the date of death. For those who remain alive and have no irPD, irPFS is censored on the date of last evaluable tumor assessment. Independent review committee performed tumor assessment.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Progression-free Survival (PFS) in Participants With NSCLC Per Modified World Health Organization (mWHO) Criteria Randomization date to date of progression or death (of censored, maximum reached: 13.6 months) By mWHO criteria, PFS is defined as the time between the randomization date and the date of progression or death, whichever occurs first. For participants with no recorded postbaseline tumor assessment, PFS was censored at the day of randomization. A participant who died without reported prior progression was considered to have progressed on the date of death. For those who remain alive and have not progressed, PFS was censored on the date of last evaluable tumor assessment. Independent review committee performed tumor assessment.
Overall Survival in Participants With NSCLC Randomization date to date of death (of censored, maximum reached: 26.5 months) Overall Survival is defined as the time from the date of randomization until the date of death. For participants who have not died, Overall Survival was censored at the recorded last date of contact; participants with a missing recorded last date of contact were censored at the last date the participant was known to be alive.
Best Overall Response Rate (BORR) Per mWHO Criteria in Participants With NSCLC and SCLC Tumor assessment at screening, every 6 weeks on treatment to Week 24, and every 12 weeks on maintenance mWHO criteria define BORR as the number of patients with best overall response of Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR), divided by the total number of participants in the data set (multiplied by 100 for percentage). CR=Complete disappearance of all index lesions; PR=decrease from baseline of \>=50% in the sum of products of the 2 largest perpendicular diameters of all index lesions. Independent review committee performed tumor assessment.
Immune-related Best Overall Response Rate (irBORR) Per irRC in Participants With NSCLC and Small-cell Lung Cancer (SCLC) Tumor assessment at screening, every 6 weeks on treatment to Week 24, and every 12 weeks on maintenance irBORR=number of participants with irBORR of immune-related Complete Response (irCR) or immune-related Partial Response (irPR), divided by total participants in the data set. irCR=Complete disappearance of all index lesions. irPR=Decrease, relative to baseline, of 50% or greater in the sum of the products of the 2 largest perpendicular diameters of all index and of all new measurable lesions. Independent review committee performed the tumor assessments.
Immune-related Disease Control Rate (irDCR) Per irRC and Disease Control Rate (DCR) Per mWHO Criteria in Participants With NSCLC and SCLC Tumor assessment at screening, every 6 weeks on treatment to Week 24, and every 12 weeks on maintenance until irPD, progressive disease, or death (maximum reached: 22 months) irDCR is defined as the proportion of participants whose immune-related best overall response is irPR, irCR, or immune-related Stable Disease (irSD) in the analysis data set. irSD=Does not meet criteria for irCR or irPR, in the absence of progressive disease. By mWHO criteria, DCR is defined as the proportion of participants whose best overall response is PR, CR, or SD in the analysis data set. SD=A decrease or tumor stabilization of 1 or more nonindex lesions. Independent review committee assessed response.
Immune-related Duration of Response (irDoR) Per irRC and DoR Per mWHO Criteria in Participants With NSCLC and SCLC Date of irCR or irPR to date of irPD or death (maximum reached: 14.2 months) irDoR is defined as the time between the date of response of confirmed irCR or irPR and the date of irPD or death, whichever occurs first. For those participants who remain alive and did progress following response, irDoR was censored on the date of last evaluable tumor assessment. By mWHO criteria, DoR is defined as the time between the date of response of confirmed CR or PR and the date of PD or death, whichever occurs first. For those who remain alive and did not progress following response, DoR was censored on the date of last evaluable tumor assessment.
