A Study of Onartuzumab (MetMAb) Versus Placebo in Combination With Paclitaxel Plus Platinum in Patients With Squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of onartuzumab (MetMAb) in combination with paclitaxel plus platinum in patients with incurable Stage IIIB or Stage IV squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Patients will be randomized to receive either onartuzumab (MetMAb) 15 mg/kg iv or placebo on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle in combination with 4 cycles of paclitaxel 200 mg/m2 iv and platinum (carboplatin/cisplatin) iv on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle. Patients who have not progressed after 4 cycles will continue with either onartuzumab (MetMAb) or placebo as maintenance therapy until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs.

- Adequate tissue for central IHC assay of Met receptor, and EGFR testing if EGFR status is unknown
- Radiographic evidence of disease
- Prior systemic treatment for Stage IIIB or IV squamous NSCLC
- NSCLC with histology classified as adenocarcinoma, large cell, mixed adenosquamous, or NSCLC not otherwise specified (NOS)
- Prior exposure to experimental treatment targeting either the HGF or Met pathway
- Patients with tumors confirmed to have EGFR-activating mutations who are suitable for anti-EGFR therapy (e.g. gefitinib or erlotinib), as determined by the investigator
- Uncontrolled brain metastases and treatment by neurosurgical resection or brain biopsy within 4 weeks prior to Day 1 of Cycle 1
- History of another malignancy in the previous 3 years except for prior history of in situ cancer or basal or squamous cell skin cancer
- Pregnant or lactating women
