Known actionable genomic alterations for which first-line approved therapies are indicated
Symptomatic CNS metastases, CNS metastasis ≥ 1.5 cm, CNS radiation within 7 days prior to randomization, potential need for CNS radiation within the first cycle, or leptomeningeal disease
Other prior malignancy (including previously treated NSCLC) unless the patient has undergone curative therapy with no evidence of recurrence of the disease for 3 years prior to randomization
Active autoimmune or lung disease requiring systemic therapy
Has pre-existing peripheral neuropathy that is ≥ Grade 2 by CTCAE version 5
Severe infection within 4 weeks prior to randomization
