What was measured

ORR was defined as the percentage of participants who had a Complete Response (CR: Disappearance of all target lesions) or a Partial Response (PR: At least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions) as assessed using RECIST 1.1. Analysis of ORR was not planned or conducted for the switch-to-pembrolizumab treatment groups. The percentage of participants who experienced a CR or PR is presented. This was the final analysis for ORR.

Analysis population: The analysis population consisted of all randomized participants. Participants were included in the initial treatment group to which they were randomized for the efficacy analysis.

Groups in this outcome

Pembrolizumab 2 mg/kg

Participants were initially randomized to receive pembrolizumab 2 mg/kg IV Q3W. With Amendment 03, this dosing was discontinued and all study participants were to be treated with fixed-dose open label pembrolizumab 200 mg IV Q3W. Participants were to receive study drug until discontinuation due to progression of disease, toxicity, or choice. (Up to \~66 months)

Pembrolizumab 10 mg/kg

Participants were initially randomized to receive pembrolizumab 10 mg/kg IV Q3W. With Amendment 03, this dosing was discontinued and all study participants were to be treated with fixed-dose open label pembrolizumab 200 mg IV Q3W. Participants were to receive study drug until discontinuation due to progression of disease, toxicity, or choice. (Up to \~66 months)

Investigator-Choice Chemotherapy (ICC)

Participants were initially randomized to receive 1 of 4 possible chemotherapy regimens decided at the treating institution (carboplatin+paclitaxel, paclitaxel alone, dacarbazine, or temozolomide). Participants were to receive study drug until discontinuation due to progression of disease, toxicity, or choice. (Up to \~66 months)
