Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer focused on measuring Tumors, Antibodies, Monoclonal, Stage IIIb Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, Stage IV Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

- Has adequate hematologic function
- Has adequate hepatic function
- Has adequate renal function

- Has a history of another primary cancer, with the exception of: a) curatively resected nonmelanomatous skin cancer; b) curatively treated cervical carcinoma in situ; or c) other primary solid tumor treated with curative intent and no known active disease present and no treatment administered during the last 3 years
- Has superior vena cava syndrome contraindicating hydration
- Has current clinically-relevant coronary artery disease (New York Heart Association III or IV) or uncontrolled congestive heart failure

Active Comparator
GCiC + IMC-A12 (Gemcitabine/Cisplatin/Cetuximab + Cixutumumab)
GCiC (Gemcitabine/Cisplatin/Cetuximab)
Cycles repeat every 3 weeks for first 6 cycles (18 weeks) and then once every 2 weeks (maintenance therapy) until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, withdrawal of consent or other withdrawal criteria met *Cisplatin will replace Carboplatin. Gemcitabine/Carboplatin/Cetuximab (GCC) plus cixutumumab will change to Gemcitabine/Cisplatin/Cetuximab (GCiC) plus cixutumumab (participants enrolled subsequent to this change will receive gemcitabine, cisplatin and cetuximab, plus cixutumumab)
Cycles repeat every 3 weeks for 6 cycles (18 weeks) and then once every 2 weeks (maintenance therapy) until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, withdrawal of consent or other withdrawal criteria met *Cisplatin will replace Carboplatin. GCC plus cixutumumab will change to GCiC plus cixutumumab (participants enrolled subsequent to this change will receive gemcitabine, cisplatin and cetuximab, plus cixutumumab)
