SecondaryProgression Free Survival (PFS) in the PD-L1 TC/IC High SubgroupTumor assessments (per RECIST 1.1) every 6 weeks for the first 24 weeks relative to the date of randomization and then every 8 weeks thereafter, up to approximately 4 years
Time from the date of randomization until the date of objective disease progression or death (by any cause in the absence of progression). Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours criteria (RECIST v1.1), as ≥20% increase in the sum of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions
SecondaryObjective Response Rate (ORR) in the PD-L1 TC/IC High SubgroupTumor assessments (per RECIST 1.1) every 6 weeks for the first 24 weeks relative to the date of randomization and then every 8 weeks thereafter, up to approximately 4 years
Number (%) of patients with at least 1 visit response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR). Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST v1.1) for target lesions (TL) and assessed by MRI or CT: CR: Disappearance of all TLs since baseline; PR: \>= 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of TLs; Overall Response (OR = CR + PR)
SecondaryDuration of Response (DoR) in the PD-L1 TC/IC High SubgroupTumor assessments (per RECIST 1.1) every 6 weeks for the first 24 weeks relative to the date of randomization and then every 8 weeks thereafter, up to approximately 4 yearsTime from the date of first documented response until the first date of documented progression or death in the absence of disease progression
