Brief summary

This randomized, open-label study was designed to evaluate and compare the safety and efficacy of atezolizumab with gemcitabine + cisplatin or carboplatin in PD-L1 selected participants with chemotherapy-naive, Stage IV squamous NSCLC. The study was closed due to low patient enrollment and the Sponsor's decision to include patients with squamous NSCLC into the GO29431 study, NCT02409342. Therefore the planned objectives of this study are no longer applicable and formal analyses of efficacy or safety have not been performed.

Interventions

DRUGAtezolizumab

Atezolizumab will be administered at a dose of 1200 milligrams (mg) by IV infusion on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle until loss of clinical benefit.

DRUGCarboplatin

Carboplatin will be administered at area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) 5 IV infusion once on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle for 4 or 6 cycles.

DRUGCisplatin

Cisplatin will be administered at 75 milligrams per square meter (mg/m\^2) IV infusion once on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle for 4 or 6 cycles.

DRUGGemcitabine

Gemcitabine will be administered at 1000 mg/m\^2 (when coadministered with carboplatin) or 1250 mg/m\^2 (when coadministered with cisplatin) IV infusion on Days 1 and 8 of each 21-day cycle for 4 or 6 cycles.
