Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Males and females ≥ 18 years of age.
  • Pathological diagnosis of non-squamous NSCLC.
  • Stage IB (T2 ≥ 4 cm), II, or IIIA NSCLC after complete surgical resection and received platinum-based chemotherapy.
  • For programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) testing, tumor tissue from the resected site of disease must be sent, received, and analyzed for biomarkers.
  • Treated with platinum-based chemotherapy:
  • Chemotherapy must have begun within 12 weeks after the resection surgery.
  • The last chemotherapy dose must have been completed at least 3 weeks and no more than 12 weeks before the participant is randomized.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score 0 or 1.
  • Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), and ROS-1 negative.
  • Have adequate organ function as indicated by laboratory values.
  • Absence of severe comorbidities that in the opinion of the investigator might hamper participation in the study and/or treatment administration.
  • Participants must sign approved informed consent form (ICF).

Exclusion criteria

  • Evidence of disease.
  • Prior treatment with anti-programmed cell death protein 1 and anti-PD-L1/2 modulating agents in adjuvant setting.
  • History or presence of immune-mediated disorders.
  • Participants with type 1 diabetes mellitus, residual hypothyroidism due to autoimmune thyroiditis only requiring hormone replacement, or skin disorders not requiring systemic treatment are permitted to enroll.
  • Participant has positive screen for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) or hepatitis C (HCV).
  • History of congenital immunodeficiency diseases, prior allogeneic stem cell transplantation, or organ transplantation.
  • History of any other malignancy other than NSCLC within 5 years prior to screening, except for appropriately treated carcinoma in situ of the cervix, nonmelanoma skin carcinoma, papillary thyroid cancer treated with surgery, etc.
  • Known clinically significant history of liver disease consistent with Child-Pugh Class B or C, including active viral or other hepatitis virus, current alcohol abuse or cirrhosis.
  • Surgery or chemotherapy-related toxicity not resolved to grade 1 with the exception of grade ≤ 2 alopecia, fatigue, neuropathy, and lack of appetite/nausea.
  • Woman of childbearing potential who is pregnant or is breast feeding.
  • Woman of childbearing potential who is not consenting to use highly effective methods of birth control.
  • Man with a partner of childbearing potential who does not consent to use highly effective methods of birth control.
  • Participant has known hypersensitivity to monoclonal antibodies or to any of the excipients of the investigational product (IP).
  • Active cardiac disease or history of cardiac dysfunction, that in the judgment of the investigator would place the participant at additional risk when participating in the study.
  • Has a history of (non-infectious) pneumonitis/interstitial lung disease that required steroids or has current neumonitis/interstitial lung disease.
  • Live vaccine therapy within 4 weeks prior to IP administration.
  • Participation in another investigational drug study within 30 days prior to IP administration.
