Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of atezolizumab plus lenvatinib or sorafenib compared with lenvatinib or sorafenib alone, on basis of overall survival (OS);Secondary Objective: •To evaluate the efficacy of atezolizumab plus lenvatinib or sorafenib compared with lenvatinib or sorafenib alone, based on progression free survival (PFS), confirmed objective response rate (ORR), time to progression (TTP) and duration of response (DOR), time to deterioration (TTD), of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) •To evaluate patient-reported function and general health status/quality of life (GHS/QoL) experienced by patients receiving atezolizumab plus lenvatinib or sorafenib versus lenvatinib or sorafenib alone •To evaluate the safety of atezolizumab plus lenvatinib or sorafenib compared with lenvatinib or sorafenib alone •To characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of atezolizumab when given in combination with lenvatinib or sorafenib •To evaluate the immune response to atezolizumab ;Primary end point(s): OS, defined as the time from randomization into the study to death from any cause;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Approximately 18 months
