Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryOverall Survival (OS)September 2015 to September 2018 (36 months)OS is defined as the time from the date of randomization until death due to any cause. OS was analyzed for the full analysis set, regardless of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) status.
SecondaryOverall Survival (OS) in PD-L1 Negative ParticipantsSeptember 2015 to September 2018 (36 months)OS is defined as the time from the date of randomization until death due to any cause. PD-L1 negative was defined as \<25% of tumor cells with membrane staining for PD-L1 at any intensity.
SecondaryOverall Survival (OS) in PD-L1 Positive ParticipantsSeptember 2015 to September 2018 (36 months)OS is defined as the time from the date of randomization until death due to any cause. PD-L1 positive was defined as ≥25% of tumor cells with membrane staining for PD-L1 at any intensity.
SecondaryProgression Free Survival (PFS)September 2015 to September 2018 (36 months)
PFS was defined as the time from the date of randomization until the date of objective disease progression or death based on investigator assessments, according to response evaluation criteria in solid tumors 1.1 (RECIST1.1). Objective disease progression was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm.
SecondaryObjective Response Rate (ORR)Assessed at randomization and every 8 weeks thereafter
The percentage of participants who experienced an objective response (complete response \[CR\] or partial response \[PR\]), based on investigator assessments according to response evaluation criteria in solid tumors 1.1 (RECIST1.1). A CR was defined as the disappearance of all target lesions (TLs) since baseline. Any pathological lymph nodes selected as TLs must have a reduction in short axis to \<10 mm. A PR was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of TLs, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters.
SecondaryDuration of Response (DoR)September 2015 to September 2018 (36 months)
Median DoR, in months, based on investigator assessments, according to response evaluation criteria in solid tumors 1.1 (RECIST1.1). A complete response was defined as the disappearance of all target lesions (TLs) since baseline. Any pathological lymph nodes selected as TLs must have a reduction in short axis to \<10 mm. A partial response was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of TLs, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters.
SecondaryDisease Control Rate (DCR)Baseline up to 6 months; baseline up to 12 months
6 Months: The percentage of participants who had a best objective response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) in the first 6 months or had demonstrated stable disease (SD) for a minimum interval of 24 weeks following randomization. 12 Months: The percentage of participants who had a best objective response of CR or PR within 12 months or had demonstrated SD for a minimum interval of 48 weeks following randomization. Objective response was based on investigator assessments, according to response evaluation criteria in solid tumors 1.1 (RECIST1.1). A CR was defined as the disappearance of all target lesions (TLs) since baseline. Any pathological lymph nodes selected as TLs must have a reduction in short axis to \<10 mm. A PR was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of TLs, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants Alive and Progression Free (APF)Baseline up to 6 months; baseline up to 12 months
APF is defined as the percentage of participants who are alive and progression free at 6 months and 12 months after randomization. Estimates of progression free survival were based on investigator assessments according to response evaluation criteria in solid tumors 1.1 (RECIST1.1). Objective disease progression was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants Alive12, 18 and 24 monthsPercentage of participants alive at 12, 18 and 24 months using a Kaplan Meier estimate.
SecondaryProgression Free Survival (PFS) in PD-L1 Negative ParticipantsSeptember 2015 to September 2018 (36 months)
Number of participants with confirmed objective disease progression (PD) at the time of the participant's last evaluable response evaluation criteria in solid tumors 1.1 (RECIST1.1) assessment. PD was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. PD-L1 negative was defined as \<25% of tumor cells with membrane staining for PD-L1 at any intensity.
