This is a Phase 2/3, multisite, randomized, open-label study in participants with first-line non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
This study includes two substudies (substudy A and substudy B) that will recruit participants according to histological subtypes due to differences in chemotherapy choice for standard-of-care and type of NSCLC.
Have systemic treatment naive, histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of Stage IIIB or IIIC (who are not amenable to curative surgery or radiotherapy) or Stage IV NSCLC per the Union Internationale contre le Cancer/American Joint Committee on Cancer staging system, 9th edition.
Have at least one measurable lesion as the targeted lesion based on RECIST v1.1. Lesions treated after prior local treatment (radiotherapy, ablation, interventional procedures, etc.) are generally not considered as target lesions. If the lesion with prior local treatment is the only targeted lesion, evidence-based radiology must be provided to demonstrate disease progression (the single bone metastasis or the single central nervous system metastasis should not be considered as a measurable lesion).
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status of 0 or 1.
Adequate organ function.
Have histologically or cytologically confirmed NSCLC with small-cell lung cancer histologic or neuroendocrine component.
Previous chemotherapy (platinum-based) or PD(L)-1 for treating NSCLC in either neo-adjuvant/adjuvant or locally advanced/metastatic setting.
Participants who received prior treatment with anti-VEGF monoclonal antibody, or PD(L)-1/VEGF bispecific antibody
Have received systemic corticosteroids (at a dosage greater than 10 mg/day of prednisone or an equivalent dose of other corticosteroids) within 7 days prior to the initiation of study treatment. Note: local, intranasal, intraocular, intra-articular or inhaled corticosteroids, short-term use (<=7 days) of corticosteroids for prophylaxis (e.g., prevention of contrast agent allergy) or treatment of non-autoimmune conditions (e.g., delayed hypersensitivity reactions caused by exposure to allergens) are allowed.
