Study Details
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of atezolizumab plus tiragolumab in combination with paclitaxel and cisplatin (PC) compared with atezolizumab matching placebo plus tiragolumab matching placebo plus PC as first-line treatment in participants with unresectable locally advanced, unresectable recurrent, or metastatic esophageal carcinoma (EC). Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive one of the following treatment regimens during induction phase: Arm A: Atezolizumab plus Tiragolumab and PC Arm B: Atezolizumab placebo plus Tiragolumab placebo and PC Following the induction phase, participants will continue maintenance therapy with either atezolizumab plus tiragolumab (Arm A) or atezolizumab matching placebo plus tiragolumab matching placebo (Arm B).

Arms
- Experimental: Atezolizumab + Tiragolumab + PCParticipants will receive atezolizumab and tiragolumab on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle during the study followed by paclitaxel and cisplatin on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle until disease progression, loss of clinical benefit or unacceptable toxicity, during the induction treatment phase.
- Placebo Comparator: Placebo + PCParticipants will receive atezolizumab matching placebo and tiragolumab matching placebo on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle during the study followed by paclitaxel and cisplatin on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle until disease progression, loss of clinical benefit or unacceptable toxicity, during the induction treatment phase.
Primary Outcome Measure
Independent Review Facility (IRF)-Assessed Progression-Free Survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: From randomization to the first occurrence of disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first (up to approximately 19 months) ]
