Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Experimental: Arm A: Nivolumab subjects - Nivolumab solution for Injection 3 mg/kg Intravenous every 2 weeks until disease progression, discontinuation due to unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent or study closure

Active comparator: Arm B: Investigator's Choice Chemotherapy - Investigator's Choice Chemotherapy administered in 3-week cycles up to a maximum of 6 cycles of Intravenous injection until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or completion of the 6 cycles, whichever comes first

Squamous subjects:

* Gemcitabine 1250 mg/mg(2) administered on Day 1 and Day 8 with Cisplatin 75 mg/m(2) administered on Day 1 of each cycle; or
* Gemcitabine 1000 mg/mg(2) administered on Day 1 and Day 8 with Carboplatin (AUC 5) administered on Day 1 of each cycle; or
* Paclitaxel 200 mg/m(2) with Carboplatin (AUC 6) administered on Day 1 of each cycle

Non-Squamous subjects:

* Pemetrexed 500 mg/m(2) with Cisplatin 75 mg/m(2) administered on Day 1 of each cycle
* Pemetrexed 500 mg/m(2) Carboplatin (AUC 6) administered on Day 1 of each cycle

Optional crossover:

* Nivolumab solution for Injection 3 mg/kg Intravenous every 2 weeks until disease progression, discontinuation due to toxicity, withdrawal of consent or study closure
