What was measured

ORR was defined as the percentage of participants in the analysis population who had a Complete Response (CR: disappearance of all target lesions) or a Partial Response (PR: ≥30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions) per RECIST 1.1. as assessed by the investigator. The sponsor allowed a maximum of 10 target lesions in total and 5 per organ on this study. Per protocol, the percentage of participants who experienced CR or PR is reported here as the ORR for all participants of the ITT population (all randomized).

Analysis population: All randomized participants (ITT population) were analyzed.

Groups in this outcome

Pembrolizumab + SOC

Participants received pembrolizumab 200 mg IV Q3W plus SOC chemotherapy with cisplatin 80 mg/m\^2 IV Q3W and 5-FU 800 mg/m\^2/day continuous IV infusion on Days 1 to 5 (120 hours) Q3W. All treatments were administered on an outpatient basis beginning on Day 1 of each 3-week dosing cycle.

Placebo + SOC

Participants received placebo to pembrolizumab (saline) IV Q3W plus SOC chemotherapy with cisplatin 80 mg/m\^2 IV Q3W and 5-FU 800 mg/m\^2/day continuous IV infusion on Days 1 to 5 (120 hours) Q3W. All treatments were administered on an outpatient basis beginning on Day 1 of each 3-week dosing cycle.
