Non-Small-Cell Lung
Conditions
Brief summary
This is a randomized, double-blinded study designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of neoadjuvant treatment with atezolizumab (MPDL3280A) or placebo in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy in participants with resectable Stage II, IIIA, or select IIIB non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) followed by open-label adjuvant/postoperative atezolizumab or best supportive care and monitoring.
Interventions
Atezolizumab will be administered as intravenous (IV) infusion at a dose of 1200 milligrams (mg) on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle (every 3 weeks) for 4 cycles during the neoadjuvant treatment phase Atezolizumab will be administered as IV infusion at a dose of 1200 milligrams (mg) every 3 weeks for 16 cycles during the post-operative adjuvant phase
Placebo will be administered as IV infusion at a dose of 1200 milligrams (mg) on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle for 4 cycles during the neoadjuvant treatment phase
Nab-paclitaxel 100 mg/m\^2 will be administered intravenously on Days 1, 8, and 15 of each 21 day cycle for 4 cycles during the neoadjuvant treatment phase
Pemetrexed 500 mg/m\^2 will be administered intravenously on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle for 4 cycles during the neoadjuvant treatment phase
Carboplatin initial target AUC of 6 mg/mL/min will be administered intravenously on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle for 4 cycles during the neoadjuvant treatment phase
Cisplatin 75 mg/m\^2 will be administered intravenously on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle for 4 cycles during the neoadjuvant treatment phase
Gemcitabine 1250 mg/m\^2 will be administered intravenously on Day 1 and 8 of each 21-day cycle for 4 cycles during the neoadjuvant treatment phase

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Independent Review Facility (IRF)-Assessed Event Free Survival (EFS) | Up to approximately 96 months | IRF-assessed EFS is defined as the time from randomization to the first documented disease progression per RECIST v1.1 that precludes surgery, local or distant disease recurrence, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Pathological Complete Response (pCR) | At time of surgery | pCR is defined as the absence of any viable primary tumor cells at the time of surgical resection in the primary tumor and all sampled lymph nodes as assessed by central and local pathology laboratory. |
| Major Pathological Response (MPR) | At time of surgery | MPR is defined as ≤ 10% residual viable tumor cells at the time of surgical resection in the primary tumor, as assessed by central and local pathology laboratory. |
