Primary Outcome Measures :
- Progression-Free Survival (PFS) as Determined by Investigator Using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumor (RECIST) v1.1 [ Time Frame: From the date of randomization to the date of the first documented disease progression or death, whichever occurred first (up to overall period of approximately 40 months) ]PFS was defined as the time (in months) from randomization to the first documentation of disease progression, as determined by the investigators, or to death from any cause, whichever occurred first.
Secondary Outcome Measures :
- PFS as Determined by Independent Review Committee (IRC) Using RECIST v1.1 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 8, thereafter every 8 weeks until disease progression, death or withdrawal from the study and 4 weeks after permanent discontinuation (up to overall period of approximately 40 months) ]PFS was defined as the time (in months) from randomization to the first documentation of disease progression, as determined by an independent review committee, or to death from any cause, whichever occurred first.
- Percentage of Participants With Objective Response of Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) as Determined by Investigator Using RECIST v1.1 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 8, thereafter every 8 weeks until disease progression, death or withdrawal from the study and 4 weeks after permanent discontinuation (up to overall period of approximately 40 months) ]
- Time to Progression of Disease in the CNS as Determined by IRC Using RECIST v1.1 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 8, thereafter every 8 weeks until disease progression, death or withdrawal from the study and 4 weeks after permanent discontinuation (up to overall period of approximately 40 months) ]
- Time to Progression of Disease in the CNS as Determined by IRC Using Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 8, thereafter every 8 weeks until disease progression, death or withdrawal from the study and 4 weeks after permanent discontinuation (up to overall period of approximately 40 months) ]
- Duration of Response (DOR) Assessed by Investigator Using RECIST v1.1 [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 8, thereafter every 8 weeks until disease progression, death or withdrawal from the study and 4 weeks after permanent discontinuation (up to overall period of approximately 40 months) ]
- Overall Survival Time [ Time Frame: Baseline, until death (up to overall period of approximately 40 months) ]
- Percentage of Participants With Non-serious Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events [ Time Frame: Up to overall period of approximately 40 months ]An adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with the treatment. An adverse event can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a pharmaceutical product, whether or not considered related to the pharmaceutical product. Preexisting conditions which worsen during a study are also considered as adverse events.
- Time to Deterioration Assessed Using EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core (QLQ-C30) Score [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 4, thereafter every 4 weeks until disease progression, death or withdrawal from the study and 4 weeks after permanent discontinuation (up to overall period of approximately 40 months) ]
- Time to Deterioration Assessed Using EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire-Lung Cancer Module (QLQ-LC13) Score [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 4, thereafter every 4 weeks until disease progression, death or withdrawal from the study and 4 weeks after permanent discontinuation (up to overall period of approximately 40 months) ]
- Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve (AUC) of Alectinib and Its Metabolite [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 4 predose (within 2 hours before administration of study drug) ]AUC was collected for both alectinib and its major metabolite, M4, and was based on their concentrations in plasma over time.
- Maximum Plasma Concentration Observed (Cmax) of Alectinib and Its Metabolite [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 4 predose (within 2 hours before administration of study drug) ]Cmax was collected for both alectinib and its major metabolite, M4, and was based on their concentrations in plasma over time.
- Time to Cmax (Tmax) of Alectinib and Its Metabolite [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 4 predose (within 2 hours before administration of study drug) ]Tmax was collected for both alectinib and its major metabolite, M4, and was based on their concentrations in plasma over time.

Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of advanced or recurrent (Stage IIIB not amenable for multimodality treatment) or metastatic (Stage IV) NSCLC that is ALK-positive as assessed by the Ventana immunohistochemistry (IHC) test. Sufficient tumor tissue available to perform ALK IHC is required. Ventana IHC testing will be performed at the designated central laboratory
- Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG PS) of 0-2
- No history of receiving systemic treatment for advanced, recurrent (Stage IIIB not amenable for multimodality treatment) or metastatic (Stage IV) NSCLC
- Adequate hematologic function: Platelet count greater than equal to (>=) 100×10^9 per liter (/L); absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >=1500 cells per microliter (cells/mcL); hemoglobin>=9.0 grams per deciliter (g/dL)
- Adequate renal function: an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) calculated using the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) formula of >=45 milliliters per minute per 1.73 square meter
- Participants must have recovered from effects of any major surgery or significant traumatic injury at least 28 days before receiving the first dose of study treatment
- Measurable disease (by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 [RECIST v1.1]) before administration of study treatment
- Previous brain or leptomeningeal metastases are allowed if the participant is asymptomatic (e.g., diagnosed incidentally at study baseline). Asymptomatic central nervous system (CNS) lesions may be treated at the discretion of the investigator as per local clinical practice. If participant has neurological symptoms or signs because of CNS metastasis, the participant must complete whole-brain radiation or gamma knife irradiation treatment. In all cases, radiation treatment must be completed >=14 days before enrollment and disease must be clinically stable
- For all females of childbearing potential, a negative serum pregnancy test result must be obtained within 3 days prior to starting study treatment
- For women who are not postmenopausal (>=12 months of non-therapy-induced amenorrhea) or surgically sterile (absence of ovaries and/or uterus), agreement to remain abstinent or use single or combined contraceptive methods that result in a failure rate of <1% per year during the treatment period and for at least 3 months after the last dose of study drug. Abstinence is acceptable only if it is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the participant. Periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, or postovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception. Examples of contraceptive methods with a failure rate of <1% per year include tubal ligation, male sterilization, hormonal implants, established, proper use of combined oral or injected hormonal contraceptives, and certain intrauterine devices. Alternatively, two methods (e.g., two barrier methods such as a condom and a cervical cap) may be combined to achieve a failure rate of <1% per year. Barrier methods must always be supplemented with the use of a spermicide
- For men, agreement to remain abstinent or use a condom plus an additional contraceptive method that together result in a failure rate of <1% per year during the treatment period and for at least 3 months after the last dose of study drug. Abstinence is acceptable only if it is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the participant. Periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, or postovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception
