Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

BICR-Assessed Objective Response Rate (ORR) in Randomized LAG-3 Positive (>=1 %) Participants
Up to 25 months

The number of LAG-3 Positive (\>=1%) participants with a Best Overall Response (BOR) of confirmed Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) divided by the number of randomized LAG-3 positive (\>=1%) participants in each arm; recorded between randomization date and the date of objectively documented progression \[per RECISIT 1.1\], death due to any cause, or date of subsequent anticancer therapy, whichever occurs first. CR= Disappearance of all target lesions PR= At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions

BICR-Assessed Objective Response Rate (ORR) in Randomized LAG-3 Positive (>=1 %) Participants - Extended Collection
From randomization date to the date of objectively documented progression, death due to any cause, or date of subsequent anticancer therapy, whichever occurs first (Up to 63 months)

The number of LAG-3 Positive (\>=1%) participants with a Best Overall Response (BOR) of confirmed Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) divided by the number of randomized LAG-3 positive (\>=1%) participants in each arm; recorded between randomization date and the date of objectively documented progression \[per RECISIT 1.1\], death due to any cause, or date of subsequent anticancer therapy, whichever occurs first. CR= Disappearance of all target lesions PR= At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions Progression=At least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study and the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm.
