Public criteria

Who may be able to participate

The sponsor separates these requirements into two groups. You do not need to interpret them alone—use them to guide a conversation with the study team.

Requirements people may need to meetInclusion criteria

Histologically or cytologically confirmed squamous NSCLC
Stage IV disease at time of study entry based on American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) 7th edition
Measurable disease at time of study entry as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, (RECIST) Version 1.1
Archived or recent tumor tissue (minimum of 5 unstained tissue slides or a paraffin-embedded tissue block) available for analysis of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) protein expression by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and other biomarker assessments

Reasons someone may not be able to joinExclusion criteria

Nonsquamous NSCLC
Prior anticancer therapy with monoclonal antibodies, signal transduction inhibitors, or any therapies targeting the EGFR, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), or VEGF receptor
Previous chemotherapy for NSCLC
Major surgery or received any investigational therapy in the 4 weeks prior to randomization
Chest irradiation within 12 weeks prior to randomization (except palliative irradiation of bone lesions, which is allowed)
Brain metastases that are symptomatic or require ongoing treatment with steroids or anticonvulsants (Participants who have undergone previous radiotherapy for brain metastases, who are now nonsymptomatic and no longer require treatment with steroids or anticonvulsants, are eligible)

Important: This is the sponsor’s public criteria, not a determination of eligibility. The study team must review your individual situation.
