Summary

The main purpose of the study was to investigate the clinical activity and safety of avelumab in combination with cetuximab plus gemcitabine and cisplatin in participants with treatment-naïve advanced squamous non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Conditions

  • Squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Interventions

DRUG

Avelumab

Participants received avelumab intravenous infusions at a dose of 800 milligram (mg) on Day 1 and Day 8 of each 3-week cycle for the first 4 cycles. Thereafter, administered every 2 weeks in the Maintenance phase until disease progression or unacceptable toxicities.

DRUG

Cetuximab

Participants received cetuximab intravenous infusions at a dose of 250 milligram per meter square (mg/m\^2) body surface area on Day 1 and 500 mg/m\^2 body surface area on Day 8 of first 4 cycles of concurrent chemotherapy. Thereafter, administered given at a dose of 500 mg/m\^2 intravenous every 2 weeks in the Maintenance phase, until disease progression or unacceptable toxicities.

DRUG

Gemcitabine

Participants received gemcitabine intravenous infusions at a dose of 1250 mg/m\^2 body surface area on Day 1 and Day 8 in 3-week cycles up to a maximum of 4 cycles, until disease progression or unacceptable toxicities.

DRUG

Cisplatin

Participants received cisplatin intravenous infusions at a dose of 75 mg/m\^2 body surface area on Day 1 of 3-week cycles up to a maximum of 4 cycles, until disease progression or unacceptable toxicities.

DRUG

Carboplatin

In case of cisplatin toxicities, participants were switched to carboplatin at a dose of target area under the serum concentration-time curve of 5 (AUC 5) on Day 1 for the remainder of cycles.
