Detailed Description

Participants can receive concurrent or sequential chemoradiotherapy (CRT) as per local standard of care, but they must be randomized within 6 weeks from completion of chemoradiotherapy. Participants should receive 4 cycles of chemotherapy and radiotherapy dose of 56-64 Gy (once daily) before randomization, and those participants who have not progressed during/after CRT will be stratified by response to CRT, radiotherapy timing, and be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to Atezolizumab+Tiragolumab arm or Atezolizumab+placebo arm.

Interventions

  • Drug: Atezolizumab
    • Atezolizumab will be administered at a dose of 1200 mg intravenously on the first day of each 21-day cycle.
  • Drug: Tiragolumab
    • Tiragolumab will be administered at a dose of 600 mg intravenously on the first day of each 21-day cycle.
  • Other: Placebo
    • Placebo matching to tiragolumab will be administered at a dose of 600 mg intravenously on the first day of each cycle.

Arms, Groups and Cohorts

  • Experimental: Arm A: Atezolizumab + Tiragolumab
    • Participants will receive atezolizumab + tiragolumab intravenously on the first day of each cycle. One cycle of therapy will be defined as 21 days.

    • The EuroQol 5-Dimension Questionnaire, 5-level version (EQ-5D-5L), is a validated self-report health status questionnaire that is used to calculate a health status utility score for use in health economic analyses. There are two components to the EQ-5D-5L: a five-item health state profile that assesses mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression, as well as a visual analogue scale (VAS) that measures health state. Published weighting systems allow for creation of a single composite score of the patient’s health status.
