1.Primary Outcome
Title Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Based on IRR by Treatment Arm
Hide Description PFS was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of the first documentation of objective tumor progression (by IRR) or death on study due to any cause, whichever occured first. If tumor progression data included more than 1 date, the first date was used. PFS (in months) was calculated as (first event date - randomization date +1)/30.44. Progression is defined using RECIST v1.1, as at least a 20% increase (including an absolute increase of at least 5 millimeters) in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study and/or unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions and/or appearance of 1 or more new lesions.
Time Frame Randomization to objective progression, death or last tumor assessment without progression before any additional anti-cancer therapy (whichever occurred first, assessed up to 33 months)

Crizotinib capsules, 250 mg twice daily (BID), were administered orally at approximately the same time each day on a continuous daily dosing schedule. Each treatment cycle was defined as 21 days. Participants could continue crizotinib treatment beyond the time of RECIST defined Progressive Disease (PD), as determined by independent radiology review (IRR), at the discretion of the investigator if the participant was perceived to be experiencing clinical benefit. The maximum duration of crizotinib treatment was 324.4 weeks.
Standard doses of chemotherapy were administered by intravenous (IV) infusion every 3 weeks for a maximum of 6 cycles. Pemetrexed (500 mg/m2) was administered over 10 minutes or according to institutional administration timing; cisplatin (75 mg/m2) was administered after adequate hydration beginning approximately 30 minutes after the end of the pemetrexed infusion and carboplatin was administered on Day 1 of a 21-day cycle at a dose calculated to produce an area under the concentration time curve [AUC] of 5 or 6 mg*min/mL, beginning approximately 30 minutes after end of pemetrexed infusion. The maximum duration of chemotherapy treatment was 24.1 weeks.

Title Time to Deterioration (TTD) in Participant Reported Pain, Dyspnea, or Cough Assessed Using Quality of Life Questionnaire Supplement Module for Lung Cancer (QLQ-LC13)
Hide Description The QLQ-LC13 consisted of 1 multi-item scale and 9 single items that assessed the specific symptoms (dyspnea, cough, hemoptysis, and site specific pain), side effects (sore mouth, dysphagia, neuropathy, and alopecia), and pain medication use of lung cancer participants receiving chemotherapy. The QLQ-LC13 Coughing, Dyspnoea and Pain in chest each ranged from 0-100 with higher scores indicating a high level of symptomatology/problems. TTD in pain in chest, dyspnea, or cough from the QLQ-LC13 was a composite endpoint defined as the time from randomization to the earliest time the participant's scale scores showed a 10 point or greater increase after baseline in any of the 3 symptoms.
Time Frame From Baseline to deterioration while on study treatment. For participants with no deterioration, the data was censored at the last date when QLQ-LC13 assessment for pain, dyspnea, or cough was completed (assessed up to 33 months)

15.Secondary Outcome
Title Change From Baseline in General Health Status as Assessed by EuroQol 5D (EQ-5D)-Visual Analog Scale (VAS)
Hide Description EQ-5D is a standardized, participant-administered measure of health outcome. It provides a descriptive profile for 5 dimensions (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, anxiety/depression), using 3 levels (no, moderate, or extreme problems) and a visual analog scale (VAS). The VAS component rates current health state on a scale from 0 (worst imaginable health state) to 100 (best imaginable health state); higher scores indicate a better health state.
Time Frame From Baseline to deterioration while on study treatment. For participants with no deterioration, the data was censored at the last date when QLQ-LC13 assessment for pain, dyspnea, or cough was completed (assessed up to 33 months)
Hide Outcome Measure Data
Hide Analysis Population Description

Arm/Group Title Crizotinib Chemotherapy
Hide Arm/Group Description:
Crizotinib capsules, 250 mg twice daily (BID), were administered orally at approximately the same time each day on a continuous daily dosing schedule. Each treatment cycle was defined as 21 days. Participants could continue crizotinib treatment beyond the time of RECIST defined Progressive Disease (PD), as determined by independent radiology review (IRR), at the discretion of the investigator if the participant was perceived to be experiencing clinical benefit. The maximum duration of crizotinib treatment was 324.4 weeks.
Standard doses of chemotherapy were administered by intravenous (IV) infusion every 3 weeks for a maximum of 6 cycles. Pemetrexed (500 mg/m2) was administered over 10 minutes or according to institutional administration timing; cisplatin (75 mg/m2) was administered after adequate hydration beginning approximately 30 minutes after the end of the pemetrexed infusion and carboplatin was administered on Day 1 of a 21-day cycle at a dose calculated to produce an area under the concentration time curve [AUC] of 5 or 6 mg*min/mL, beginning approximately 30 minutes after end of pemetrexed infusion. The maximum duration of chemotherapy treatment was 24.1 weeks.

Title Change From Baseline in General Health Status as Assessed by EQ-5D-Index
Hide Description EQ-5D is a standardized, participant-administered measure of health outcome. It provides a descriptive profile for 5 dimensions (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, anxiety/depression), using 3 levels (no, moderate, or extreme problems) and a visual analog scale (VAS). EQ-5D summary index is obtained with a formula that weights each level of the 5 dimensions. The index-based score is interpreted along a continuum of 0 (death) to 1 (perfect health).

Title Percentage of Participants With Visual Disturbance as Assessed by Visual Symptom Assessment Questionnaire (VSAQ-ALK)
Hide Description VSAQ-ALK is a self-report measure that was developed to assess the problems of visual disturbances and symptoms may include the appearance of overlapping shadows and after images; shimmering, flashing or trailing lights; strings, streamers, or floaters; as well as hazy or blurry vision. The participants answered "Yes" to the first question (Q1) of VSAQ-ALK "Have you experienced any visual disturbances?" were considered to have experienced visual disturbance and were instructed to complete the rest of the questionnaire. The percentage of participants who responded to Q1 of VSAQ-ALK as "Yes" and as "No" during each study cycle was calculated as (n/N*)*100 where N* was the number of participants who had completed Q1.
Time Frame Cycle 1 Day 1 to end of treatment or withdrawal, no later than 4 weeks (+/- 1 week) from last dose of study medication or when the decision was taken to withdraw from the study (whichever was sooner, assessed up to Cycle 86)

Title Agreement Between Central Laboratory ALK FISH and ALK IHC Test Results - Molecular Profiling Evaluable
Hide Description Agreement between central laboratory anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and ALK immunohistochemistry (IHC) test results is based on analysis of participants in the Molecular Profiling (MP) evaluable population that have an ALK IHC result and an ALK FISH result of either positive or negative only. This MP evaluable population included participants who screen failed, which their ALK test results were negative based on FISH test. Tumor tissue samples from these screen failure participants were consented and kept. These samples served as a part of negative sample set for evaluation of IHC test and/or polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to determine ALK fusion events. Participants with FISH results of uninformative and assay not performed and IHC results of valid IHC status not available were excluded from the analysis of agreement between central laboratory ALK FISH and ALK IHC test results.
Time Frame During the screening (less than or equal to 28 days prior to dosing)

Title Percentage of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (AEs; All Causalities)
Hide Description An AE was an untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study treatment without regard to possibility of causal relationship. Serious adverse event (SAE) was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes: death, initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization, life-threatening experience, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, congenital anomaly. Treatment-emergent AEs were those with initial onset or that worsen in severity after the first dose of study medication. Grade 3 and 4 AEs in below table indicated severe AE and life-threatening consequences respectively; Grade 5 indicated death due to AE.
Time Frame From the first dose of study medication up to 28 days after the last dose of study medication or up to the time that a participant died or received subsequent anticancer treatment (maximum duration between first and last dose: 324.4 weeks)

Arm/Group Title Crizotinib Chemotherapy
Hide Arm/Group Description:
Crizotinib capsules, 250 mg twice daily (BID), were administered orally at approximately the same time each day on a continuous daily dosing schedule. Each treatment cycle was defined as 21 days. Participants could continue crizotinib treatment beyond the time of RECIST defined Progressive Disease (PD), as determined by independent radiology review (IRR), at the discretion of the investigator if the participant was perceived to be experiencing clinical benefit. The maximum duration of crizotinib treatment was 324.4 weeks.
Standard doses of chemotherapy were administered by intravenous (IV) infusion every 3 weeks for a maximum of 6 cycles. Pemetrexed (500 mg/m2) was administered over 10 minutes or according to institutional administration timing; cisplatin (75 mg/m2) was administered after adequate hydration beginning approximately 30 minutes after the end of the pemetrexed infusion and carboplatin was administered on Day 1 of a 21-day cycle at a dose calculated to produce an area under the concentration time curve [AUC] of 5 or 6 mg*min/mL, beginning approximately 30 minutes after end of pemetrexed infusion. The maximum duration of chemotherapy treatment was 24.1 weeks.
