* At least 1 measurable lesion by RECIST 1.1

Key exclusion criteria:

* Previous immunotherapy (e.g. anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, anti-PD-L2, anti-CTLA-4 antibody, or any other antibody or drug specifically targeting T-cell co-stimulation or immune checkpoint pathways).
* Prior treatment with canakinumab or drugs of a similar mechanism of action (IL-1β inhibitor).
* Subjects with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) sensitizing mutations (identified in exons 19, 20, or 21), and/or ALK rearrangement by locally approved laboratory testing.
* Previously untreated or symptomatic central nervous system (CNS) metastases or lepto-meningeal disease.
* Subject with suspected or proven immune-compromised state or infections.
