• Has undergone complete resection of the primary tumor (partial or radical nephrectomy) and complete resection of solid, isolated, soft tissue metastatic lesion(s) in M1 NED participants.
• Must have undergone a nephrectomy and/or metastasectomy ≤12 weeks prior to randomization and recovered from surgery and any post-operative complications before randomization.

• Received prior treatment with a cancer vaccine.
• Has a diagnosis of immunodeficiency or is receiving chronic systemic steroid therapy.
• Has a known additional malignancy that is progressing or has required active treatment within the past 3 years.
• Has a history of brain or bone metastatic lesions.
• Has severe hypersensitivity to study medication or any of the substances used to prepare the study medication.
• Has an active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in the past 2 years
• Has a history of (noninfectious) pneumonitis/interstitial lung disease that required steroids or has current pneumonitis/interstitial lung disease
