Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Must be greater or equal to 20 years of age
Must have cytologically or histologically confirmed NSCLC with either:
- Metastatic disease (Stage IV) OR
- Stage IIIB disease not amenable to surgery or curative intent.
Note: It is permissible to use either AJCC Version 6.0 or the AJCC Version 7.0 staging system. For sites that use AJCC Version 7.0, T4M0 patients with other ipsilateral nodules and N0-N2 are still eligible.
- If tumor histology is adenocarcinoma, must have wild-type EGFR genotype as assessed by a validated assay that includes exon 19 deletion and exon 21 (L858R) substitution.
- Must have received one or two prior lines of systemic chemotherapy for advanced or metastatic disease, one of which must be a platinum-doublet therapy.
- Must have disease progression or recurrence documented by radiographic assessment following treatment after last chemotherapy or chemoradiation regimen (completed within the previous 12 months).
- Must have available recent (before treatment start) or archival tumor specimen.
- Must have measurable disease for Part A, measurable disease or non-measurable disease for Part B
- Must have Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1
- Must have adequate hematological function
- Must have adequate renal function
- Must have adequate hepatic function
- Agreement to use effective contraception while on treatment and for at least 6 months after end of treatment
- Must have provided informed consent for study participation.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Lung adenocarcinoma with an Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) gene rearrangement
- Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) less than 45%
- Prior EGFR-targeted regimen, anti-HER2, anti-HER3, or anti-HER4 therapy
- History of other malignancies, except adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer, curatively treated in-situ disease, or other solid tumors curatively treated with no evidence of disease for greater or equal to 5 years
- History of corneal disease
- History of interstitial lung disease (ILD)
- Clinically active brain metastases
- Uncontrolled hypertension
- Clinically significant ECG changes
- Clinically significant (in the opinion of the Investigator) ascites or pleural effusion requiring chronic medical intervention
- Myocardial infarction within 1 year before enrollment, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina, or unstable cardiac arrhythmia requiring medication
- Treatment with anticancer therapy, antibody-based therapy, retinoid therapy, or hormonal therapy within 4 weeks before study drug treatment
- Therapeutic radiation therapy or major surgery within 4 weeks before study drug treatment; or palliative radiation within 2 weeks before study drug treatment
- Participation in clinical drug trials within 4 weeks
- Uncontrolled infection requiring IV antibiotics, antivirals, or antifungals, known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, or active hepatitis B or C infection.
