## Title and summary

**Summary**

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common type of lung cancer, accounting for 80%-85% of lung cancers cases. Squamous carcinoma accounts for 20-30% of all NSCLC cases. The purpose of this study is to determine if ABBV-1480 plus chemotherapy works better than pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy in adult participants with NSCLC. ABBV-1480 is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of NSCLC. Participants will be randomized into 2 groups. One group will receive ABBV-1480 with platinum based chemotherapy. Another group will receive standard of care (SOC) pembrolizumab with platinum based chemotherapy. Up to approximately 940 adult participants with locally advanced (Stage IIIB/C) or metastatic (Stage IV) sqNSCLC, will be enrolled in the study in approximately 250 sites globally. In this Phase 3 study one of two groups will receive doses of Intravenous (IV) ABBV-1480 + Carboplatin \\& Paclitaxel/ Nab-paclitaxel and other group will receive Intravenous (IV) Pembrolizumab + Carboplatin \\& Paclitaxel/ Nab-paclitaxel. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at an approved institution (hospital or clinic). The effect of the treatment will be frequently checked by medical assessments, blood tests, questionnaires and side effects.

Timeframe: Up to Approximately 60 Months  
Progression-Free Survival (PFS) is defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of radiographic progression as per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 as determined by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR) or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.
2. Overall Survival (OS)  
Timeframe: Up to Approximately 60 Months  
Overall Survival (OS) is defined as the time from randomization to the event of death from any cause.

6. Time To Response (TTR) assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)  
Timeframe: Up to Approximately 60 months  
Time To Response (TTR) is defined as the number of months from the date of first dose to the date of best overall response of Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR)
7. Progression-Free Survival (PFS) assessed by the investigator  
Timeframe: Up to Approximately 60 Months  
Progression-Free Survival (PFS) is defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of radiographic progression based on RECIST v1.1 or death from any cause, whichever occurs earlier.
8. Objective Response Rate (ORR) assessed by the investigator  
Timeframe: Up to Approximately 60 Months

9. Duration Of Response (DoR) assessed by the investigator  
Timeframe: Up to Approximately 24 months  
Duration Of Response (DoR) defined as time from the first documented Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) to the first occurrence of radiographic progression per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.

11. TTR assessed by the investigator  
Timeframe: Up to Approximately 60 months  
Time To Response (TTR) is defined as the number of months from the date of first dose to the date of best overall response of Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR)
12. Change from baseline at Week 12 in the coughing item as measured by the EORTC QLQ-LC13.  
Timeframe: Up to Approximately 12 Weeks  
The EORTC QLQ-LC13 is a lung cancer specific module and consists of 13 questions assessing lung cancer-associated symptoms and treatment-related effects, including one multiple-item scale to assess dyspnea and a series of single items assessing coughing, hemoptysis, sore mouth, dysphagia, peripheral neuropathy, alopecia, pain, and pain medication.
