Brief Summary

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

Part A: To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of Xentuzumab (BI 836845) in combination with afatinib in patients with non-small cell lung cancer with progression following prior treatment (EGFR TKI or platinum-based chemotherapy).

Part B: To evaluate the early anti-tumour activity of Xentuzumab (BI 836845) in combination with afatinib in patients with EGFR mutant non-small cell lung cancer with progression following prior irreversible EGFR TKIs.

Part A and B: To evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of BI 836845 in combination with afatinib in patients with non-small cell lung cancer
