Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This 2 arm study will compare the efficacy and safety of Tarceva plus Avastin, and chemotherapy plus Avastin, in the first-line treatment of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Patients will be randomized to receive either Tarceva 150mg p.o. daily plus Avastin 15mg/kg i.v. every 3 weeks, or standard platinum-based chemotherapy (4-6 cycles) plus Avastin. The anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.

Study Groups

Bevacizumab, Chemotherapy

Participants received bevacizumab, 15 milligrams (mg) per (/) kilogram (kg), intravenously (IV), on Day 1 of Cycles 1 through 7 until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, death, or withdrawal. Participants also received 4 to 6 cycles of a standard platinum-containing regimen of chemotherapy: either gemcitabine, 1250 mg/ square meter (m\^2), IV, on Days 1 and 8 of Cycles 1 through 4 or 6, and cisplatin 80 mg/m\^2, IV, on Day 1 of Cycles 1 through 4 or 6; or paclitaxel, 200 mg/m\^2, IV, and carboplatin area under the curve (AUC) 6 mg/ milliliter (ml) multiplied by (\*) minute (min) on Day 1 of Cycles 1 through 4 or 6. The chemotherapy regimen and number of cycles was up to the discretion of the investigator.
