Active Comparator

Arm Label

Cosibelimab

Control

Arm Description

Participants receive cosibelimab 1200 mg intravenously (IV) PLUS pemetrexed 500 mg/m^2 IV (with vitamin supplementation) PLUS cisplatin 75 mg/m^2 IV OR carboplatin Area Under the Curve (AUC) 5 IV on Day 1 of every 3-week cycle (Q3W) for 4 cycles followed by cosibelimab 1200 mg IV PLUS pemetrexed 500 mg/m^2 IV Q3W until progression.

Participants receive pemetrexed 500 mg/m^2 IV (with vitamin supplementation) PLUS cisplatin 75 mg/m^2 IV OR carboplatin AUC 5 IV on Day 1 of every 3-week cycle (Q3W) for 4 cycles followed by pemetrexed 500 mg/m^2 IV Q3W until progression.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Overall Survival (OS)
Defined as the time from randomization to death due to any cause.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Progression-Free Survival (PFS)
Defined as the time from randomization until disease progression by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1).
Objective response rate (ORR)
Defined as the proportion of participants who have a confirmed complete response or partial response per RECIST v1.1
Duration of response (DOR)
Defined as the time from the earliest date of documented response until earliest date of disease progression (per RECIST v1.1) or death from any cause, whichever comes first.
Number of Participants Who Experienced an Adverse Event (AE)
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a study participant administered study drug and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this study drug.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This is an efficacy and safety study of cosibelimab (CK-301) combined with pemetrexed/platinum chemotherapy versus pemetrexed/platinum chemotherapy alone in participants with advanced or metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have not previously received systemic therapy for advanced disease. Participants will be randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive cosibelimab combined with pemetrexed/platinum (Investigators choice of cisplatin or carboplatin), OR pemetrexed/platinum (Investigators choice of cisplatin or carboplatin). The primary hypothesis is that cosibelimab in combination with pemetrexed/platinum chemotherapy prolongs Overall Survival (OS) compared to pemetrexed/platinum chemotherapy alone.
