Overview
Brief Summary

Eligibility Criteria
- Ages
- 18 years to 65+ years (65+ Years, 18-64 Years)
- Accepts Healthy Volunteers
- Yes
Inclusion Criteria
- •Has histologically confirmed cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) as the primary site of malignancy (metastatic skin involvement from another type of primary cancer or from an unknown primary cancer is not permitted)
- •Has provided an archival or newly-obtained tumor tissue sample adequate for Programmed Cell Death Ligand 1 (PD-L1) testing as determined by central laboratory testing
- •Has a life expectancy of >3 months
- •Has an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1 ≤10 days prior to the first dose of study intervention
- •Has histologically confirmed LA cSCC with ≥1 high-risk feature(s) as the primary site of malignancy
- •Has undergone complete macroscopic resection of all known cSCC disease with or without microscopic positive margins. For those participants with residual microscopic positive margin involvement, confirmation that additional re-excision is not possible must be provided
- •Has completed adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) for LA cSCC with last dose of RT ≥4 weeks and ≤16 weeks from randomization
- •Has received an adequate post-op dose of RT (either hypofractionated or conventional)
- •Is disease free as assessed by the investigator with complete radiographic staging assessment ≤28 days from randomization
- •Is not pregnant or breastfeeding
Exclusion Criteria
- •Has macroscopic residual cSCC after surgery and/or recurrence with active cSCC disease before randomization
- •Has a history of (noninfectious) pneumonitis/interstitial lung disease that required steroids or has current pneumonitis/interstitial lung disease
- •Has an active infection requiring systemic therapy
- •Has a known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection
- •Has a known history of hepatitis B (defined as hepatitis B surface antigen [HBsAg] reactive) or known active hepatitis C virus (HCV; defined as HCV RNA [qualitative] is detected) infection
- •Is pregnant or breastfeeding or expecting to conceive or father children within the projected duration of the study, starting with the screening visit through 120 days after the last dose of study intervention
- •Has had an allogeneic tissue/solid organ transplant
- •Has any other histologic type of skin cancer other than invasive cSCC (eg, basal cell carcinoma) that has not been definitively treated with surgery or radiation; Bowen’s disease; Merkel cell carcinoma; or melanoma
- •Has received prior therapy with an anti-programmed cell death receptor 1(PD-1), anti- PD-L1, or anti-programmed cell death receptor ligand 2 (PD-L2) agent or with an agent directed to another co-stimulatory or co-inhibitory T-cell receptor (eg, cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 [CTLA-4], OX-40, CD137)
- •Has received prior systemic anticancer therapy including investigational agents for cSCC ≤4 weeks prior to before start of study intervention
