Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: - Have completely resected (R0) NSCLC AJCC/UICC v. 8 stage IIA-IIIA and IIIB (N2 disease only) OR have NSCLC Stage IIA-IIIA, IIIB (N2 disease only) and are candidates for complete resection surgery - Cisplatin-based chemotherapy is mandatory for all subjects (Exception: In subjects with stage IIA disease with no nodal involvement, cisplatin-based chemotherapy can be administered if recommended by the treating physician). When required, a minimum of two cycles of cisplatin-based chemotherapy is mandatory, after which additional therapies can be given based upon local clinical practice and/or guidelines. Typically, chemotherapy is initiated within 60 days of surgery. - Must have recovered from all toxicities related to prior systemic therapy to grade =< 1 (CTCAE v 4.03). Exception to this criterion: subjects with any grade of alopecia and grade 2 or less neuropathy are allowed to enter the study - Have ECOG performance status (PS) of 0 or 1

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: - Have unresectable or metastatic disease, positive microscopic margins on the pathology report, and/or gross disease remaining at the time of surgery - Have received any neoadjuvant therapy - Presence or history of a malignant disease, other than the resected NSCLC, that has been diagnosed and/or required therapy within the past 3 years Exceptions to this exclusion include the following: completely resected basal cell and squamous cell skin cancers, completely resected carcinoma in situ of any type and hormonal maintenance for breast and prostate cancer > 3 years. - Have a history of current diagnosis of cardiac disease - Have uncontrolled diabetes - Have known active or recurrent hepatic disorder including cirrhosis, hepatitis B and C (positive or indeterminate central laboratory results) - Subjects must be evaluated for tuberculosis as per local treatment guidelines or clinical practice. Subjects with active tuberculosis are not eligible. - Have suspected or proven immunocompromised state as described in the protocol - Had Live and attenuated vaccination within 3 months prior to first dose of study drug (e.g. MMR, Yellow Fever, Rotavirus, Smallpox, etc.).
