What was measured

The EORTC QLQ-C30 is a questionnaire that rates the overall quality of life in cancer participants. The first 28 questions use a 4-point scale (1=not at all to 4=very much) for evaluating function (physical, role, social, cognitive, emotional), symptoms (diarrhea, fatigue, dyspnea, appetite loss, insomnia, nausea/vomiting, constipation, and pain) and financial difficulties. The last 2 questions use a 7-point scale (1=very poor to 7=excellent) to evaluate overall health and quality of life. Global scores are converted to a score of 0 to 100, with a higher score indicating improved health status. The change from baseline in EORTC QLQ-C30 score will be presented.

Analysis population: Randomized participants who have at least 1 patient reported outcome (PRO) assessment for QLQ-C30 available and have received at least 1 dose of study medication.

Groups in this outcome

Chemoradiotherapy + Pembrolizumab

Participants received pembrolizumab 200 mg intravenously (IV) on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle (Q3W) for 5 cycles followed by pembrolizumab 400 mg IV on Day 1 of each 6-week cycle (Q6W) for an additional 15 cycles. During the Q3W dosing period of pembrolizumab, participants received concurrent chemoradiotherapy. The standard of care chemoradiotherapy regimen includes cisplatin 40 mg/m\^2 IV once per week (QW) for 5 or 6 weeks plus external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) followed by brachytherapy with minimum total radiotherapy dose of 80 Gray Units (Gy) for volume-directed and 75 Gy for point-directed given with the total duration of radiation treatment not to exceed 50 days (with an extension to a maximum of 56 days for unforeseen delays).

Chemoradiotherapy + Placebo for Pembrolizumab

Participants received placebo for pembrolizumab IV on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle (Q3W) for 5 cycles followed by placebo IV on Day 1 of each 6-week cycle (Q6W) for an additional 15 cycles. During the Q3W dosing period of placebo, participants received concurrent chemoradiotherapy. The standard of care chemoradiotherapy regimen includes cisplatin 40 mg/m\^2 IV once per week (QW) for 5 or 6 weeks plus external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) followed by brachytherapy with minimum total radiotherapy dose of 80 Gray Units (Gy) for volume-directed and 75 Gy for point-directed given with the total duration of radiation treatment not to exceed 50 days (with an extension to a maximum of 56 days for unforeseen delays).
