Hide Description PFS was defined as the time from randomization until the date of progressive disease (PD) or death from any cause. Participants who were alive and without progression were censored at the date of their last tumor assessment.

The intent-to-treat population (ITT) included all participants classified according to the treatment arms into which they were randomized, regardless of the actual treatment received. Censored participants: 10 in Cetuximab + Pemetrexed arm; 25 in Pemetrexed arm; 6 in Cetuximab + Docetaxel arm; 16 in Docetaxel arm.

Title Percentage of Participants With Symptomatic Response (Symptom Response Rates) Using the Lung Cancer Subscale (LCS) Scores of Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy for Participants With Lung Cancer (FACT-L)
Hide Description The FACT-LCS is a set of 7 questions to inventory problems specific to lung cancer symptoms. Participants rate each item on a 5-point Likert-type scale from 0 (not at all) to 4 (very much). Scores range from 0-28 and higher score indicates fewer symptoms. Symptom response (improvement) was defined as ≥2 point increase from baseline in the 7-item LCS score that was maintained for 2 consecutive assessments at least 3 weeks, and not >5 weeks apart for participants, whose baseline LCS score was ≤26. Symptom response rate was the percentage of participants with symptomatic response.
Time Frame At baseline, every 3 weeks and 30 days after end of therapy up to 50 months

6.Secondary Outcome
Title Time to Symptomatic Progression
Hide Description The FACT-LCS (see description in Outcome measure 5) inventories problems specific to lung cancer symptoms. Using this Scale, Symptom progression = a ≥ 2 point decrease from baseline in LCS score maintained for 2 consecutive assessments ≥3 weeks, and <5 weeks, apart. The symptom progression date = the first of 2 consecutive assessments with a ≥2 point decline. Time to symptomatic progression = the time from randomization to the symptom progression date. For participants with no symptom progression, time to symptomatic progression was censored the date of last symptom assessment.
Time Frame Randomization until symptomatic progression up to 48.3 months

Participants who were alive and without progression were censored at the date of their last independent review committee (IRC) tumor assessment.

Title Number of Participants With Common Toxicity Criteria (CTC) Grade 3 or 4 Toxicities
Hide Description National Cancer Institutes-Common Toxicity Criteria version 3.0 was used by investigators to assess participant toxicities. Mapping of investigator verbatim terms to CTCAE terms was done by the sponsor/designee using CTCAE v4.0. Participants reported had grade 3 or 4 toxicities (or both potentially). Grade 3 AEs: severe or medically significant but not immediately life-threatening;hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization indicated; disabling; limiting self care activities of daily living. Grade 4 AEs: life-threatening consequences; urgent intervention indicated.
