What was measured

OS was defined as the time from randomization to death due to any cause. Participants without documented death at the time of the interim analysis were censored at the date of the last follow-up. The OS is presented.

Analysis population: The analysis population consisted of all randomized participants.

Groups in this outcome

Pembrolizumab+Pemetrexed+Platinum Chemotherapy Followed by Pembrolizumab+Pemetrexed

Participants received pembrolizumab 200 mg IV PLUS pemetrexed 500 mg/m\^2 IV (with vitamin supplementation) PLUS cisplatin 75 mg/m\^2 IV OR carboplatin AUC 5 IV on Day 1 of every 3-week cycle (Q3W) for 4 cycles followed by pembrolizumab 200 mg IV PLUS pemetrexed 500 mg/m\^2 IV Q3W until progression. (Participants who received pembrolizumab 200 mg IV Q3W for up to 2 years but experienced disease progression, were eligible to receive a second course of pembrolizumab monotherapy 200 mg IV Q3W, at the investigator's discretion, for up to 1 additional year.)

Control

Participants received saline placebo IV PLUS pemetrexed 500 mg/m\^2 IV (with vitamin supplementation) PLUS cisplatin 75 mg/m\^2 IV OR carboplatin AUC 5 IV on Day 1 of every 3-week cycle (Q3W) for 4 cycles followed by saline placebo IV PLUS pemetrexed 500 mg/m\^2 IV Q3W until progression. (Effective 23-Dec-2019, participants discontinued saline placebo. If documented disease progression had occurred, and participants receiving Control met certain criteria, they were eligible to switch over to receive pembrolizumab monotherapy Q3W for the remainder of the study.)
