To Evaluate the Efficacy of the Treatment Primary · From administration of first dose of bintrafusp alfa until objective tumor progression or death, up to 2 years.

To determine the efficacy of M7824 in terms of the Progression Free Survival (PFS) assessed by the investigator according to the modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (mRECIST) Version 1.1. Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (mRECIST) Version 1.1 as an increase of at least 20%in the sumof thediameters of viable (enhancing) target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sumof thediameters of the viable (enhancing) target lesions. The sum must also demonstrate an absoluteincrease of at least 5 mm.
