- Number of participants with serious adverse events (SAEs) [ Time Frame: Up to 135 days after participant's last dose ]
- Number of participants with immune-mediated adverse events (IMAEs) [ Time Frame: Up to 135 days after participant's last dose ]

- Time Until Definitive Deterioration-Physical Function (TUDD-PF): The time from randomization until definitive deterioration in the EORTC QLQ-C30 physical function scale score in randomized participants with PD-L1 CPS ≥ 1 [ Time Frame: Up to follow up visit 2 (approximately 135 days after last dose) ]The EORTC (European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer) Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 (QLQ-C30) consists of 30 questions incorporated into 5 functional scales (physical, role, cognitive, emotional, and social functioning), 3 multi-item symptom scales (fatigue, pain, nausea and vomiting), a global health status / Quality of Life scale, and six single symptom items. All of the scale and single-item measures range in score from 0 to 100, where a higher score represents a higher response level. High functional scores indicates more favorable outcomes and a higher score on the symptom domains indicates higher symptom burden/less favorable patient outcome.

Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older (Adult, Older Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Histological confirmed previously treated colorectal cancer with adenocarcinoma histology with metastatic or recurrent unresectable disease at study entry
-
Participants must have:
- progressed during or within approximately 3 months following the last administration of approved standard therapies (at least 1, but not more than 4 prior lines of therapies), which must include a fluoropyrimidine, oxaliplatin, irinotecan, an anti-VEGF therapy, and anti-EGFR therapy (if KRAS wild-type), if available in the respective country, or;
- been intolerant to prior systemic chemotherapy regimens if there is documented evidence of clinically significant intolerance despite adequate supportive measures
- Must have sufficient tumor tissue & evaluable PD-L1 expression to meet the study requirements
- Must have measurable disease per RECIST v1.1. Participants with lesions in a previously irradiated field as the sole site of measurable disease will be permitted to enroll provided the lesion(s) have demonstrated clear progression and can be measured accurately
Exclusion Criteria:
- Prior treatment with either an immunotherapy or with regorafenib or with TAS-102
- Untreated central nervous system (CNS) metastases, participants are eligible if CNS metastases have been treated and participants have neurologically returned to baseline (except for residual signs or symptoms related to the CNS treatment)
- History of refractory hypertension not controlled with anti-hypertensive therapy, myocarditis (regardless of etiology), uncontrolled arrhythmias, acute coronary syndrome within 6 months prior to dosing, Class II congestive heart failure (as per the New York Heart Association Functional Classification), interstitial lung disease/pneumonitis or an active, known or suspected autoimmune disease
- Confirmed tumor microsatellite instable high/deficient mismatch repair (MSI-H/dMMR) status as per local standard testing; MSI/MMR test results from initial diagnosis are acceptable.
Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria apply
