Exclusion Criteria:

Subjects with any of the following characteristics/conditions will not be included in the study:

1. More than 1 prior chemotherapy regimen prior to enrollment in advanced/metastatic setting.

If disease recurred/relapsed within the adjuvant chemotherapy treatment or <=6 months after the completion of the adjuvant chemotherapy, then the adjuvant chemotherapy is considered as the first line systemic chemotherapy to the disease.

2. Systemic anti cancer therapy completed within a minimum of 5 half lives of study enrollment.

3. Prior therapy with an antibody or drug specifically targeting T cell co stimulation or immune checkpoint pathways, including, but not limited to, anti programmed cell death protein 1 (anti PD 1), anti programmed cell death protein ligand 1 (anti PD L1), anti PD L2, anti cluster of differentiation 137 (anti CD137), or anti cytotoxic T lymphocyte associated antigen 4 (anti CTLA 4) antibody.

4. Known epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) activating mutations; known prior therapy with EGFR TKI(s) (the prior treatment with brigatinib is allowed as an ALK TKI).
