Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: • To evaluate the efficacy of lurbinectedin in combination with atezolizumab compared with atezolizumab based on Independent Review Facility (IRF)-assessed progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS);Secondary Objective: •To evaluate the efficacy of lurbinectedin in combination with atezolizumab compared with atezolizumab based on Investigator-assessed PFS, Confirmed objective response rate (ORR), duration of response (DOR), PFS rates at 6 months and 12 months, and overall survival (OS) rates at 12 months and 24 months • To evaluate the safety of lurbinectedin in combination with atezolizumab compared with atezolizumab based on incidence and severity of adverse events • To evaluate the immunogenicity of atezolizumab with and without lurbinectedin based on the prevalence of anti-drug antibodies (ADA) to atezolizumab throughout treatment • To evaluate the health-related quality of life of participants treated with lurbinectedin in combination with atezolizumab compared with atezolizumab ;Primary end point(s): 1. IRF-assessed progression-free survival (PFS) after randomization, defined as the time from randomization to the date of first documented disease progression (as assessed by the IRF according to RECIST v1.1) or death, whichever occurs first 2. Overall Survival after randomization, defined as the time from randomization to the date of death from any cause ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1-2. Up to 60 months

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): 1. Investigator-assessed progression-free survival (PFS) 2. Confirmed objective response rate (ORR) as determined by the IRF and investigator according to RECIST v1.1 3. Duration of response (DOR) as determined by the IRF and investigator according to RECIST v1.1, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first 4. PFS rates at 6 months and 12 months as determined by the IRF and investigator according to RECIST v1.1 5. OS rates at 12 months and 24 months 6. Incidence and severity of adverse events, including serious adverse events and adverse events of special interest in randomized participants, with severity determined according to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) v5.0 7. Prevalence of anti-drug antibodies (ADAs) to atezolizumab at induction phase baseline and incidence of ADAs to atezolizumab after drug administration by treatment group 8. Time to confirmed deterioration (TTCD) from randomization in participant reported physical functioning and global health status as measured by the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1-3. Up to 60 months 4. At 6 months and 12 months after randomization 5. At 12 months and 24 months after randomization 6. Up to 60 months 7. Induction Phase: Day 1 of Cycle 1-4; Maintenance Phase: Day 1 of Cycle 1-4, 8, 12, and 16, </= 30 days after treatment discontinuation 8. Induction Phase: Day 1 of Cycle 1-4; Maintenance Phase: Day 1 of Cycle 1, </=30 Days after the last dose of study treatment, at treatment discontinuation visit, post treatment follow-up visit
