- Investigator-assessed DFS [ Time Frame: From Baseline up to first occurence of event by investigator assessment (up to approximately 88 months) ]Investigator-assessed DFS, defined as the time from randomization to death from any cause or the first documented recurrence assessed by investigator, whichever occurs first. Recurrence is defined as any of the following: Local recurrence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC), new primary RCC, or distant metastasis of RCC. Investigator-assessed DFS will be analyzed similarly to the analysis of IRF-assessed DFS.
- Overall Survival [ Time Frame: From Baseline up to death due to any cause (up to approximately 88 months) ]
- Investigator-assessed DFS in Participants With Tumor-Infiltrating Immune Cell (IC) 1/2/3 [ Time Frame: From Baseline until first occurrence of DFS event (up to approximately 88 months) ]
- IRF-assessed Disease-Free Survival (DFS) [ Time Frame: From Baseline until first documented recurrence event (up to approximately 88 months) ]Independent Review Facility (IRF)-assessed DFS is defined as the time from randomization to death from any cause or the first documented recurrence assessed by IRF, whichever occurs first.
- IRF-assessed DFS in Participants With Tumor-Infiltrating Immune Cell (IC) 1/2/3 [ Time Frame: From Baseline until first occurrence of DFS event (up to approximately 88 months) ]Independent Review Facility (IRF)-assessed DFS is defined as the time from randomization to death from any cause or the first documented recurrence assessed by IRF, whichever occurs first.
- IRF-assessed Event-free Survival (EFS) [ Time Frame: From Baseline until first documented recurrence event (up to approximately 88 months) ]IRF-assessed event-free survival (EFS) is defined as the time from randomization to death from any cause, or the first documented recurrence in patients without baseline disease by IRF or the first documented disease progression in patients identified as having baseline disease by IRF, whichever occurs first. Disease progression is defined as either unequivocal progression of baseline disease or new unequivocal lesions.
- Disease-Specific Survival [ Time Frame: From Baseline up to death due to RCC (up to approximately 88 months) ]
- Distant Metastasis-Free Survival [ Time Frame: From Baseline up to date of diagnosis of distant metastases or death due to any cause (up to approximately 88 months) ]Distant metastasis-free survival, defined as the time from randomization to death from any cause or the date of diagnosis of distant (i.e., non-locoregional) metastases assessed by the investigator, whichever occurs first
- Percentage of Participants Who Are Alive and IRF-assessed Recurrence Free at Year 1, 2, and 3 [ Time Frame: Up to 3 years ]Recurrence assessment will be as per IRF on the basis of radiographic evidence and whenever possible supported/confirmed by biopsy results.
- Percentage of Participants Who Are Alive and Investigator-assessed Recurrence Free at Year 1, 2, and 3 [ Time Frame: Up to 3 years ]Recurrence assessment will be as per investigator on the basis of radiographic evidence and whenever possible supported/confirmed by biopsy results.
- Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events [ Time Frame: From Baseline up to 90 days after last dose of study drug or until initiation of new systemic anti-cancer therapy, whichever occurs first (last dose = up to approximately 1 year) ]
- Maximum Serum Concentration (Cmax) of Atezolizumab [ Time Frame: Predose (Hour[hr]0), 0.5 hr after end of infusion (infusion duration=1 hr) on Cycle 1 Day 1; predose (hr 0) on Day 1 of Cycles 2, 3, 4, 8; at treatment discontinuation (up to 1 year); 90-120 days after last dose (last dose = up to 1 year) (Cycle=21 days) ]
- Minimum Serum Concentration (Cmin) of Atezolizumab [ Time Frame: Predose (Hour[hr]0), 0.5 hr after end of infusion (infusion duration=1 hr) on Cycle 1 Day 1; predose (hr 0) on Day 1 of Cycles 2, 3, 4, 8; at treatment discontinuation (up to 1 year); 90-120 days after last dose (last dose = up to 1 year) (Cycle=21 days) ]
- Percentage of Participants With Anti-Drug Antibodies (ADA) to Atezolizumab [ Time Frame: Predose (hr 0) on Day 1 of Cycles 1, 2, 3, 4, 8; at treatment discontinuation (up to 1 year); 90-120 days after last dose (last dose = up to 1 year) (Cycle=21 days) ]

Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older (Adult, Older Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- ECOG performance status of less than or equal to (</=) 1
- Pathologically confirmed RCC with a component of either clear cell histology or sarcomatoid histology that has not been previously treated in the adjuvant or neoadjuvant setting and classified as being at high risk of RCC recurrence
- Radical or partial nephrectomy with lymphadenectomy in select participants
- Absence of residual disease and absence of metastasis, as confirmed by a negative baseline computed tomography (CT) of the pelvis, abdomen, and chest no more than 4 weeks prior to randomization. Confirmation of disease-free status will be assessed by an independent central radiologic review of imaging data.
- Absence of brain metastasis, as confirmed by a negative CT with contrast or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of the brain, no more than 4 weeks prior to randomization. Applicable only to metastasectomy participants
- Full recovery from nephrectomy or metastasectomy within 12 weeks from randomization following surgery
Exclusion Criteria:
- Bilateral synchronous tumors with inheritable forms of RCC including von Hippel-Lindau
- Any approved anti-cancer therapy, including chemotherapy or hormonal therapy, within 3 weeks prior to initiation of study treatment
- Treatment with any other investigational agent or participation in another clinical study with therapeutic intent within 28 days or five half-lives of the investigational agent, whichever is longer, prior to enrollment
- Malignancies other than RCC within 5 years prior to Cycle 1, Day 1
- History of autoimmune disease
- Participants with prior allogeneic stem cell or solid organ transplantation
- History of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (including pneumonitis), drug-induced pneumonitis, organizing pneumonia (i.e., bronchiolitis obliterans, cryptogenic organizing pneumonia), or evidence of active pneumonitis on screening chest CT scan
- Positive test for HIV
- Participants with active hepatitis B or hepatitis C
- Active tuberculosis
- Severe infections within 4 weeks prior to randomization including but not limited to hospitalization for complications of infection, bacteremia, or severe pneumonia

- Administration of a live, attenuated vaccine within 4 weeks before Cycle 1, Day 1
- Any other diseases, metabolic dysfunction, physical examination finding, or clinical laboratory finding giving reasonable suspicion of a disease or condition that contraindicates the use of an investigational drug or that may affect the interpretation of the results or render the participant at high risk from treatment complications
- Prior treatment with cluster of differentiation (CD)137 agonists, anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein-4 (anti-CTLA-4), anti-programmed death-1 (anti-PD-1), or anti-programmed death-ligand 1 (anti-PD-L1) therapeutic antibody or pathway-targeting agents
- Treatment with systemic immunostimulatory agents (including but not limited to interferons or interleukin-2) within 6 weeks or five half-lives of the drug, whichever is shorter, prior to randomization
