PFS is defined as time from randomization until first objective radiological progression per RECIST 1.1 as assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR), or death due to any cause (in the absence of progression). The analysis will include all randomized participants with PD-L1 expressing tumors.

Overall Survival (OS) in experimental arm relative to comparator arm

OS is defined as the time from randomization until the date of death due to any cause.

Progression-Free Survival (PFS) (using BICR assessments according to RECIST 1.1)
Up to approximately 6 years

PFS is defined as the time from randomization until radiological progression per RECIST 1.1 as assessed by BICR, or death due to any cause (in the absence of progression), in PD-L1-negative participants.

Overall Survival (OS), in PD-L1-negative participants.
Up to approximately 6 years

OS is defined as the time from randomization until the date of death due to any cause, in PD-L1-negative participants.

Progression-free Survival (PFS) based on the investigator assessment in all randomized participants (FAS)
Up to approximately 7 years

PFS is defined as the time from date of randomization until RECIST 1.1- defined radiological progression or histopathologically confirmed progression as assessed by the Investigator or death due to any cause, whichever occurs earlier.

Progression-free Survival at 24 months (PFS24)
From date of first dose until 24 months.

PFS24 is defined as the Kaplan-Meier estimate of PFS at 24 months per RECIST 1.1 or histopathologically confirmed progression as assessed by the Investigator or death due to any cause, whichever occurs earlier.

Progression Free Survival (PFS)
Approximately 3 years

PFS is defined as the time from randomization until progression per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours, Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) or death due to any cause.

Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs)
Approximately 3 years

Number of participants who received at least one dose of study treatment will be assessed.

The safety and tolerability of volrustomig in combination with other anticancer drugs in participants with specified solid tumors will be assessed.

Confirmed Objective Response rate (ORR)
Up to 2 year 10 months

ORR is defined as the percentage of participants who have a confirmed complete response (CR) or confirmed partial response (PR), as per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1).

Objective response rate (ORR)
Through study completion, an average of 4 years
