Secondary	Phase 2 (Non-Randomized Part Only): Progression-free Survival (PFS) Based on Tumor Assessment by Investigator	Progression-free survival (assessed by Investigator) time was defined as the time in months from randomization to either first observation of radiologically confirmed progression disease by the Investigator or occurrence of death due to any cause within 84 days of either randomization or the last tumor assessment. PD is defined as at least a 20 percent (%) increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study; and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions and/or the presence of new lesions. The sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. PFS was measured using Kaplan-Meier (KM) estimates.	Up to 328 weeks
Secondary	Phase 2 (Non-Randomized Part Only): Progression-free Survival (PFS) Based on Tumor Assessment by Independent Review Committee (IRC)	Progression-free survival (assessed by Independent Review Committee) time was defined as the time in months from randomization to either first observation of radiologically confirmed progression disease by the IRC or occurrence of death due to any cause within 84 days of either randomization or the last tumor assessment. PD is defined as at least a 20 percent (%) increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study; and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions and/or the presence of new lesions. The sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. PFS was measured using Kaplan-Meier (KM) estimates.	Up to 328 weeks
Secondary	Phase 2: (Non-Randomized Part Only): Overall Survival (OS) Time	Overall survival time was measured as time in months between the date of randomization and the date of death.	Up to 328 weeks
Secondary	Phase 2 (Non-Randomized Part Only): Percentage of Participants With Objective Response Based on Tumor Response Assessment According to Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) Criteria	Objective response (OR) was defined as the percentage of participants who had achieved complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as the best overall response according to local radiological assessments from randomization/the first administration of the study treatment to the first observation of disease progression (PD). CR: defined as disappearance of all target and non-target lesions and any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to < 10 mm. PR: defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. PD defined as an increase of at least 20% in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum of the diameters of target lesions recorded since treatment started and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions and/or the presence of new lesions. The sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm.	Up to 328 weeks
Secondary	Phase 2 (Non-Randomized Part Only): Percentage of Participants With Disease Control Based on Tumor Response Assessment According to Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) Criteria	Disease control defined as CR, PR, or stable disease(SD) as the best overall response according to local radiological assessments from the date of randomization/the first administration of the study treatment to the first observation of PD. CR:disappearance of all target and non-target lesions and any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to <10 mm. PR:at least 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. PD:an increase of at least 20% in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum of the diameters of target lesions recorded since treatment started and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions and/or the presence of new lesions. The sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5mm. SD:as any cases that do not qualify for either PR/PD at minimum interval of 42 days after randomization/start of study treatment.	Up to 328 weeks
Secondary	Phase 2: Change From Baseline in European Organization for the Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life (EORTC QLQ-C30) Global Health Status Scale Score at End of Treatment (EOT)	EORTC QLQ-C30 is a 30-question tool used to assess the overall quality of life (QoL) in cancer participants. It consisted of 15 domains: 1 global health status (GHS) scale, 5 functional scales (Physical, role, cognitive, emotional, social), and 9 symptom scales/items (Fatigue, nausea and vomiting, pain, dyspnoea, sleep disturbance, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, financial impact. The EORTC QLQ-C30 GHS/QoL score ranges from 0 to 100; High score indicates better GHS/QoL. Score 0 represents: very poor physical condition and QoL. Score 100 represents: excellent overall physical condition and QoL.	Baseline and EOT (up to 110 weeks)
Secondary	Phase 2: Time-to-Symptom Progression (TTSP)	TTSP was measured from randomization to symptomatic progression by lung cancer symptom scale (LCSS) used to measure symptom changes relevant to quality of life (QoL).It consisted of 9 items focused on cancer symptoms (loss of appetite, fatigue, cough, shortness of breath, blood in sputum, pain, symptoms of cancer, illness affecting normal activity, QoL).For each symptom score distance from left boundary to point where participant has marked line was measured in millimeters (mm).Total scale length was 100 mm. Symptomatic progression was defined as increase/worsening of average symptomatic burden index (ASBI) (mean of 6 major lung cancer specific symptom scores);Worsening defined as 10% increase of scale breadth from baseline. Score 0 indicate no/minimum symptoms;100 indicates maximum level of symptoms.	Up to 328 weeks
