Has gastrointestinal malabsorption or any other condition that might affect oral study intervention absorption
Has serious nonhealing wound, ulcer, or bone fracture within 28 days before first dose of study intervention

Is considered a poor medical risk due to a serious, uncontrolled medical disorder or nonmalignant systemic disease
Has received prior therapy with an anti-programmed cell death 1 protein (anti-PD-1), anti-programmed cell death ligand 1 (anti-PD-L1), or anti programmed cell death ligand 2 (anti-PD-L2) agent or with an agent directed to another stimulatory or coinhibitory T-cell receptor
Has received prior treatment (chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or surgical resection) including investigational agents for SCLC
Is expected to require any other form of antineoplastic therapy for SCLC, including radiation therapy, while on study
Has received a live or live-attenuated vaccine within 30 days before the first dose of study intervention
Is currently participating in or has participated in a study of an investigational agent or has used an investigational device within 4 weeks before the first dose of study intervention
Has radiographic evidence of encasement or invasion of a major blood vessel, or of intratumoral cavitation. A participant that meets this exclusion criterion but is otherwise deemed eligible for the study may be randomized across the specific intervention groups.
Has symptomatic ascites, pleural effusion, or pericardial effusion. A participant who is clinically stable following treatment for these conditions is eligible
Has a diagnosis of immunodeficiency or is receiving chronic systemic steroid therapy (in dosing exceeding 10 mg daily of prednisone equivalent) or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 7 days prior the first dose of study intervention

Has known active central nervous system (CNS) metastases and/or carcinomatous meningitis. Participants with brain metastases may participate only if they satisfy all of the following: a) Completed treatment at least 14 days before the first dose of study intervention b) Have no evidence of new or enlarging brain metastases confirmed by posttreatment repeat brain imaging performed at least 4 weeks after pretreatment brain imaging, and c) Are neurologically stable without the need for steroids for at least 7 days before the first dose of study intervention as per local site assessment. Participants with untreated brain metastases will be allowed if they are asymptomatic, the investigator determines there is no immediate CNS-specific treatment required, there is no significant surrounding edema, and the brain metastases are of 5 mm or less in size and 3 or fewer in number
