Brief Summary
This prospective, single-center, randomized, controlled study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of sintilimab or placebo in combination with chemotherapy as second-line treatment for patients with stage IV nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer with wild-type EGFR after failure with platinum-containing chemotherapy. Treatment may continue as long as participants are experiencing clinical benefit as assessed by the investigator, i.e., in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or symptomatic deterioration attributed to disease progression.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Compare Overall Survival (OS) between sintilimab +chemotherapy and placebo + chemotherapy.
To compare the efficacy of the combination of sintilimab and chemotherapy versus placebo and chemotherapy in terms of overall survival (OS) in patients with stage IV nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer with wild-type EGFR after failure with platinum-containing chemotherapy. Overall Survival (OS) was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of death due to any cause. Data for participants who were not reported as dead at the time of analysis was censored at the date when they were last known to be alive.
approximately 24 months
Secondary Outcomes (4)
Compare objective response rate between sintilimab +chemotherapy and placebo + chemotherapy.
approximately 24 months
Compare Progression Free Survival (PFS) between sintilimab +chemotherapy and placebo + chemotherapy using RECIST 1.1.
approximately 24 months
Compare duration of response between sintilimab +chemotherapy and placebo + chemotherapy.
approximately 24 months
Number of Participants who Experience Treatment Related Adverse Events (AEs).
approximately 24 months
Study Arms (2)
Sintilimab plus chemotherapy
EXPERIMENTALSintilimab (200 mg) plus chemotherapy (physicians' choice between docetaxel and pemetrexed) every 3 weeks.
Placebo plus chemotherapy
ACTIVE COMPARATORPlacebo plus chemotherapy (physicians' choice between docetaxel and pemetrexed) every 3 weeks.
Interventions
Sintilimab will be administered intravenously at a fixed dose of 200 milligrams (mg) on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle.
Docetaxel 75 milligrams per square meter (mg/m\^2) will be administered intravenously on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle.
Pemetrexed 500 mg/m\^2 will be administered intravenously on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle.
0.9% sodium chloride injection as placebo will be administered intravenously at a fixed dose of 100 milliliters (mL) on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle.
